    TL;DR: It’ll use a new, more secure key type.

      I had to create one this year after discovering that connectbot (ssh client on Android) didn’t support agent forwarding otherwise.

        Probably a good idea to look for a different client, call me tinfoil but I wouldn’t want to touch a very old mechanism that is supported/pushed by a very recognisable 3 letter agency

          I’ve just started using SSH inside of Termux, got tired of all the weird pitfalls SSH Clients for Android usually have

          Probably. It’s in f-droid but increasingly looking not quite unmaintained, but not developed actively enough.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
