[mosh-devel] Thank you <3

[Coralie Mercier]

Hello Mosh developers,

I’ve been a happy user of mosh for over 10 years, perhaps 15. It was recommended to me by a colleague after I complained that the spotty wifi kept killing my connection to the machine where I used irssi in a screen session. This colleague said “it’s developed at MIT”, I recall, and our organisation’s HQ was at MIT too, so I was proud.

The website https://mosh.org/ didn’t exist then, I think and I wasn’t aware if there were mailing lists already; I’d have written earlier!

I wanted to express my gratitude. Mosh is great and I use it daily at work.
The features I appreciate are:
 Runs inside your terminal
 Get rid of network lag
 Change IP. Stay connected
 … including if the client goes to sleep and wakes up later or loses internet connection.

I recently reinstalled from scratch a new computer and after 2 days using the built-in ssh, I finally took the 5 minutes I needed to re-install mosh and use it out of the box. I promoted it to my colleagues and friends, too.

Thank you. Keep up the good work.

Coralie
