This still has issues in some browsers. With sites already having other methods from before this existed, there isn’t a good reason to move to it, when they’ll need the custom version for browsers that lack full support.
This is the issue with a lot of newer features.

Your knowledge is out of date. <input type="date"> been implemented in nearly every browser since 2018, with the exception of Safari which was slow and didn't put it in until 2021, and Opera Mini which still doesn't have it at all, but who the hell uses Opera Mini? https://caniuse.com/input-datetime https://caniuse.com/input-datetime
- al_borland 1y agoSafari and Firefox still show partial support. The features that are lacking may or may not be relevant for a particular use case. I also can’t count on all my users to have the latest version of the browser, and don’t enjoy people messaging me telling my stuff doesn’t work.
