Anyone on Android 15+ managed to ssh into a local Linux box from the native terminal app now in Android?

Once again, this is using the phone to ssh into a computer. Not the other way round.

I could easily ssh into my account on tty.sdf.org, but it just hangs forever when I try accessing my laptop. Got sshd running, but I've likely set something up wrong.

✅ 📱→ 💻
❌ 💻 → 📱

Update: reinstalled openssh-client, it works now

fzf is a general-purpose command-line fuzzy finder.

It’s an interactive filter program for any kind of list; files, command history, processes, hostnames, bookmarks, git commits, etc. With its novel “fuzzy” matching algorithm, you can quickly type in patterns with omitted characters and still get the results you want.

Exciting news for #Fedify developers! We've just landed a major milestone for Fedify 2.0—the #CLI now runs natively on #Node.js and #Bun, not just #Deno (#456). If you install @fedify/cli@2.0.0-dev.1761 from npm, you'll get actual JavaScript that executes directly in your runtime, no more pre-compiled binaries from deno compile. This is part of our broader transition to Optique, a new cross-runtime CLI framework we've developed specifically for Fedify's needs (#374).

This change means a more natural development experience regardless of your #JavaScript runtime preference. Node.js developers can now run the CLI tools directly through their familiar ecosystem, and the same goes for Bun users. While Fedify 2.0 isn't released yet, we're excited to share this progress with the community—feel free to try out the dev version and let us know how it works for you!

"terminal"/"TUI" programs that require a mouse to use/navigate: WHAT. WHY. BAD PROGRAMMER. SIT DOWN AND THINK ABOUT WHERE YOU WENT WRONG IN YOUR LIFE.

Introducting: `stormcheck mypy --edu` , type check your code, and learn #Python fundamentals at the same time!

The error messages themselves are ordered by difficulty level, and each category has a dedicated tutorial built-in to the CLI!

My goal was to create a tool that can teach beginners as they work, but still be useful to professionals who already know their craft.

We call this Compassion-Driven-Development

Once finished, I plan on putting this on all my open-source projects to help contributors who are new to Python.

Soon: RUFF checking as well?? What else would a tool like this benefit from?

Finally got around documenting a little more the small CLI app "framework" I've been using for almost a dozen projects now (incl. several work projects). The package in question is now already 3 years old (https://thi.ng/args), but I've only just managed now to add a basic, commented usage example for this `cliApp()` feature to the readme:

Defining a multi-command CLI app (incl. two sub-commands):
https://github.com/thi-ng/umbrella/blob/develop/packages/args/README.md#declarative-multi-command-cli-application

Also part of this: I've refactored a few other projects to simplify their CLI handling using this `cliApp()` wrapper (project links are in the above readme, in case you'd like to see more advanced/realworld uses...) One of the (non-public) work projects ended up consisting of up to a dozen sub-commands and I found this declarative and modular setup to be very, very helpful (and elegant)...
