Comment(by justdave):

 Replying to [comment:1 robertm]:
 > use a frontend date format that doesn't use the date of the week.

 Makes sense.  But that doesn't solve the problem, because it'd be way more
 convenient to have the newest stuff sorted to the top, and even if I use
 all numeric dates it means I have to scroll to the end to get to the new
 stuff.

 Consider this a feature request if you want, but it's certainly not
 invalid.  That particular browse-by filter is begging for a custom sort
 order to make it user-friendly.  Sacrificing readability of dates in the
 rest of the UI just to get a good sort order in the Date Added filter,
 while it works, isn't a very user-friendly option.
