you can also use basically anything that's not / in a file name as well, it's pretty based. Meanwhile on windows you have to use SMB mappings if you don't want your directory structure to self immolate, what a good operating system.
I think you might even be able to get away with /s if you escape them properly in the filename.
i'm not sure if you're allowed to escape the / character, i feel like it's blatantly illegal. But you could use the funny character set trolling thing instead, where you use a not forward slash instead. (not the \)
I'm fairly confident MacOS allows it, I've seen people do some Utterly Cursed shit in MacOS, but idk about Linux
maybe on macos, that might be funny, it's probably fucky over there for some other reason anyway.
Im pretty sure it's just explicitly illegal in linux though.
