Dolphin doesn't follow the settings for time & date formatting set in System Settings. I've set my settings to be in 24h for example, and Dolphin shows time in 12h This adds to the visual inconsistency, both in the DE as a whole, and between different items in a Dolphin window. In a Dolphin window, when browsing a directory, the date & time for the items within doesn't appear underneath one another. This breaks the visual consistency, and makes it harder to follow date/time for the items (some items are 2-digit, others are 1-digit, thus the two take different spaces and aren't aligned). In summary: 1) Dolphin doesn't follow the global time/date settings. 2) Dolphin's own time formatting isn't visually consistent Reproducible: Always

This has since been fixed; the date/time formatting works perfectly fine for me with Dolphin 18.04. Please reopen the report if you still experience problems with this. Thanks!
This problem is occuring again in Kubuntu 22.04-LTS. Dolphin does not respect the plasma dat format settings. For example, if I set the date format to `en_SE` (date format YYYY-MM-DD), I still see D/M/YY format in Dolphin, both when using relative and absolute dates. Dolphin version 21.12.3
