I did use MTPutty and then Kitty, but needing a mobile/tablet instance as well and tired of keeping .ssh copied to different devices to keep all of the connections & keys, etc. Was a pain, plus MTPutty did crash a lot for me.

Termius, I found to be the best SSH client that works on all devices & OSs, including my laptop on Ubuntu. It's not free but worth the small amount it costs to be able to share connection settings across devices.

... And the Dev has been responsive to requests, issues, etc. On Twitter for me also.

(On windows) A 70MB download for a terminal? I'm already suspicious. This better not be an electron app :)

A yearly subscription, too? ugh.

Edit: It is an electron app. Pretty, though.

Yes, it's electron unfortunately. So you're basically downloading chrome with a SSH node module & some interface code. I'm not a huge fan of it either, and even run slack in browser to save on memory on desktops. But the main features I have been after we're checked with termius. One of them being the yearly subscription of $10, but if it helps keep the devs active on it, I'm okay with paying for software, especially if it makes my job easier. Which usually includes lots of time in numerous SSH sessions.
