The horrible tech people are winning because the good tech people don't really have a way to reach out and explain ourselves. "I built you something magical, and it's free!" Just does not compute for most people. Has to be a scam, right?

@kitkat personally I expect there to be a Matrix app. throwing another brand for a client in the mix makes it more confusing.

the constant error messages and needing to verify my device (which currently doesn't work) makes it off putting.

the GUI always handled key management to be more user friendly.

I've ripped that out here and assuming that if you want to use this you know your way around ssh-keygen/agent.
