My ~/.ssh/known_hosts used to look like that, but now it looks like the host part is encrypted? It looks like:

  |1|{base64-encoded-string?}|{another-base64-encoded} ssh-rsa AAA{long-string}
This is on Ubuntu 22.04 (Linux Mint).

This is because HashKnownHosts has been turned on, the first value is a salt, the second value is a hash of the salt and the host name.
