There's only one quadrant of this that should be acceptable to anyone! Positive X, positive Y!
Nope, the bottom right quadrant is the acceptable one. Z is up and follows the right-hand rule. I will die on this hill.
Minecraft ruined me as a kid. I'm still mad that so many softwares use Z as up. I'm still not happy about it.
Y up feels much more comfortable for me.
Y up is also the standard in 2D graphs, so it makes sense that Z is depth.
