Specially to code on mobile.
I was using a direct connection to my server but the ssh client breaks the format making it annoying and take more time to do stuff.

If you have any other suggestions to edit code on Android I’ll give them a try.

Edit: A quick search brought up ICEcoder, what do you think about it?

the ssh client breaks the format

could you elaborate what you were doing here? like vim on the server via ssh tunnel?

The SSH clients I’ve tried do weird things with the pasted code most of the times removing new lines, so I need to copy line by line, and even then it sometimes inserts line breaks where there aren’t.

Most probable what I’ll end up doing is use a regular mobile text editor and sync with git or via FTP to just copy paste the files.

I sometimes use termux to edit stuff on a remote box via ssh and I haven’t had that kind of issue

for the most part just the fact that SSH as a protocol is not super reliable on a (sometimes) spotty wifi/mobile connection (this could be solved with something like mosh)

the other big thing is using vim with the android keyboard. which is just a major pain haha
