Link expiration date formatting by region

[linucksrox]

On the shared link expiration date, it's in a format that I'm not accustomed to. I live in the US and we do dates backwards, month-day-year. This should ideally be a regional setting, or something, and I would expect to see month-day-year instead of day-month-year because right now I set November 8, 2018 but it looks to me like August 11, 2018 if I didn't know any better. The exact text I'm referring to in this example is 8-11-2018 which is ambiguous to me.

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are #11710 (Setting start dates for shares (similar to expiration dates)), #9510 (Share link suggestion: default expiration date and maximum expiration date), #12232 (Share link menu disappears when setting expiration date), #4525 (Expiration date of shared links is not set even when it's forced), and #8785 (Password expiration).

Were you able to resolve this issue?

No, it still displays "backwards" for me in 17.0.1

I cannot reproduce that as it just displays YYYY-MM-DD no matter which language or locale I choose.

Thanks, apparently this has been fixed in the last couple years 👍
