This is my preferred versioning format for user-facing software, by far.
I feel like Semver should also adopt the date inclusion, like 7.4.2-202606 or even 7.4.202606 โ you can even extended it to multiple daily releases like 7.4.20260610.1233
There's too much software to mentally track when each version was released. You should be able to tell at a glance.
