Ask HN: Why does Windows still not have a good free SSH client?
OSX has iTerm. Windows has Putty.
For goodness sake you'd think that some big company like Microsoft would want there to be a good, free SSH terminal for Windows.
- lnanek2 11y agoAren't there dozens of terminal apps for Windows? Like: http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ I think far more people use POSIX compatibility layers like Cygwin, which include SSH, and then a console app of their choice anyway. Microsoft does indeed have their own version with POSIX compatibility and tools, although everyone prefers the open source ones.
