I got to introduce a friend to using the "ISO 8601" date/time format for file naming so their podcast files stay sorted.

For dates, the format is

YYYY-MM-DD

Using that as the first thing in the file name you get things like:

2024-03-02 Some file.txt
2024-03-13 Another file.txt
2024-04-19 And another.txt
2024-05-09 And again.txt

It's a nice quality of life hack for when sorting by date is more important than sorting by title
