They could have chosen a better operator. But the functionality is fantastic. Makes working with paths so much easier. And you can even use slashes on windows paths.

It makes the code so much more clean and readable since you're dropping multiple levels of brackets , for example

os.path.join( a, b, os.path.dirname(c))

Becomes

a / b / c.parent

I really like it

I always hated os.path. pathlib is just so much better.
