Having to use the wrong slash everywhere

Have you ever tried just using forward slashes anyway? It works more or less some of the time.

[–] 7uWqKj@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes, except where it doesn’t, which you have to remember, which makes it just another annoyance.

My solution is to run everything through msys2 😅

I'd actually like it if it was backslash for local paths and forward slash for remote paths. But if you connect to a cifs share, it still uses backslashes, so the whole thing seems pointless
