Tangential feedback: As clever as it might be, the website made me pull back when opening and drilling in on mobile, quite disorienting.

Aren't ssh and mosh open-source or what does that mean?
cassianoleal•24m ago
I had the same thought. Probably bad phrasing, the author might not be a native English speaker.
ralgozino•13m ago
no- native speaker here (Spanish mother tongue), I read it as "an alternative, that is open source, to ...", no implication that the other options are not open source

It means that Osewa is open-source. I suppose that its possible for SSH alternatives to exist that are not open-source, which is why its worded as "An open-source alternative to...".

Here's the github: https://github.com/rjyo/osewa

every commit has claude as an author (judge as you may)

Security:

> Where ssh is ahead is age: OpenSSH has decades of audits and osewa has none yet,

I think this is most important when concerning remote connections to your computer. though, that doesn't mean we should never improve.

> vibe-coded SSH

What's the use case? Because the existing SSH doesn't have enough exploits and security holes?

Finally an open source alternative to ssh
maeln•21m ago
The limitation of SSH and Mosh are real, and SSH over Quic is not a novel idea but a good one. But SSH is a *highly critical* piece of software. A security issue in SSH is basically like giving the keys to the whole kingdom. In such a critical environment, I highly doubt a slop-coded "SSH but on Quic" will be well received. And you can already do that with Iroh and dumbpipe minus the slop code.
hypfer•11m ago
Something as essential to security like ssh should probably not be reinvented as AI slop like this for most if not all use-cases.

But it's written in Rust so it's all safe. /s

As an aside: it looks like they really are trying replace everything on the stack with Rust variants.

One of the main features of mosh is that it keeps local tty state and can do state transfer and update with the remote pty. This lets the user continue to type and see a (local) echo even when transport is lost. A mosh comparison on typing latency benchmark is notably missing and this entire feature goes unmentioned.
