@markwyner I answered type (as long as my hands are working), but that's because I've experienced a lot of pull-downs and mini-calendars with hellacious UIs that were really hard to use.
If it were easier to use, my answer might change to no preference. It's certainly easier when I'm hurting to use the Wacom tablet to point at something than to type.

@markwyner depends on the date. If its just a few days ahead, a calendar is easier. If I have to scroll back one million years to find my birth date, its hell.

@markwyner I mainly use the web on desktop/laptop, ie. with a keyboard.
I prefer to type a date as I find it faster than having to navigate a calendar date picker with a mouse.

@JohannaMakesGames @markwyner Totally agree, it’s a long scroll from 2026 to 1950 !

@markwyner Type a date! I’m disabled but I don’t use, yet, assistive devices, and scrolling to navigate through dd/mm/yyyy is awful.

@markwyner i choose 'we need something new' bc i would like to suggest we do away with time altogether, and capitalism, and 'work' should only be allowed to contain activities you LOVE doing.

@markwyner typing is best but which format… that’s why I voted for calendar.

@markwyner click/tap from a mini calendar when the navigation choices are only previous month and next month is so user hostile.

@markwyner it's awful when you have to go back month by month for 60 years (720 clicks = rsi) on a calendar, but if the date format is unfamiliar say mm/dd/yyyy instead of the more logical dd/mm/yyyy or International Standard yyyy/mm/dd, it's a bind.
