If you want to be properly anonymous, don't use public key authentication (ssh -o 'PubkeyAuthentication no' username@ssh.chat). Otherwise, anyone in the chat can /whois you and get your public key hash - and they could pretty easily deanonymize you if you use that same key on GitHub (https://blog.benjojo.co.uk/post/auditing-github-users-keys) or potentially other services.
