Eternal Terminal pitches itself as entirely superior to Mosh, but also describes itself as using TCP (Mosh uses UDP). I'm curious how that can actually cover the use cases Mosh provides?
Mosh using UDP means that as a connectionless protocol, your end points can move (eg: from WiFi to LTE, or vice-versa), and beyond a small hiccup, your connections remain alive and well.
- yanokwa 4y agoET adds a layer between application and TCP sockets that persists connections. https://eternalterminal.dev/howitworks https://eternalterminal.dev/howitworks has more. If you are mostly on unreliable and high-latency connections, mosh will likely feel better, but with no native scrollback.
