gollark: I use OpenSSH as a client and TinySSH as a server, it works okay.
gollark: What SSH client and server are you using?
gollark: Not weird key-exchange issues or whatever.
gollark: Weird. In my experience SSH either just doesn't work at all because I broke it somehow, denies me access for some reason, or works fine.
