It’s Atlas. At least now they put everyone's landing status on the release so the Captain can see who needs a landing. I used to start the introduction with “Who needs a landing?” But sometimes you get two pilots both getting tight on landings. “It’s OK, I’ll get one my next flight” and then something happens to the next flight. I always tell folks to get a landing a month whether they need it or not.
It seems that the info can be up to a week behind. YMMV
Yes but if it says it’s been 70 days since they landed it’s a starting point to figure who’s leg it should be. If they say they made landing a couple days ago ok, who wants a landing?

I’m new to this fleet, and all I can say is that it’s kind of amazing how many pilots actively try to sit 3rd or 4th seat. Not surprising that there have been so many issues with upgrades.

I agree. I mean, I don't actively look to do a landing, but I always check the other crews expirations to see who is first. If I am first or second I will try to get the landing. If not, I will let someone else have it. I doubt I will have an issue with upgrade since I have already done 5 years as a 767 captain at another airline.
