If you’re on Linux exiftool can get the creation date for you: exiftool -p '$CreateDate' -d '%Y-%m-%d' FILENAME, and you could run tgat in a loop over your files, something like:
mkdir -p out
for f in *.jpg
do
createdate=$(exiftool -p '$CreateDate' -d '%Y-%m-%d'"${f}")
cp -p "${f}""out/${createdate} - ${f}"done
Obviously don’t justbgo running code some stranger just posted on the internet, especially as I haven’t tested it, but that should copy images from the current directory to a subdirectory called ‘out’ with the correct filenames.
I don’t see any HTML when I look at that comment from Lemmy, but kbin seems to make a real mess of rendering code blocks.
Basically that bit had a few lines of code they could yse to do what they wanted.

ok I think I finally need to ask
What the fuck is up with the html code? Ive seen this in a lot of posts and it just throws me every time.

Do you mean strings like
%Y? They’re not url-encoded values - they’re strftime format directives.
