XCIF is your friend!

You can back-date the meta for those images and scans with something like `exiftool`. No definitive word of if it runs on Linux, but it does on MacOS and other Unix systems.

Otherwise there is a web implementation: https://exif.tools

So yes, I look at dates in file names as a very good thing. If like me you

I agree to an extent, it's just that the 'date as part of filename' in
my case is in the directory structure rather than the file name.  It's
not just for GnuCash and other similar sorts of things.  I have my
photo collcetion in a decade/year/month/day directory hierarchy.

So photos I took on 24th March this year are in:-

     /home/chris/pictures/2020s/2022/03/24

... and I can very easily find pictures I took on my school summer
holidays in the 1960s, and everywhere in between.
