I just installed this on my Chromebook with Ubuntu, and on my EC2 instance. I've been very frustrated with the lag I was experiencing while typing in the shell, due to high/variable latency. In my very preliminary testing over the last hour, this has solved my problems almost completely.
Security is less of a concern because I'm running OpenVPN to my instances, so the UDP traffic mosh uses is encrypted anyway, and not open to the public.
One issue I did notice is that irssi isn't refreshing quite as quickly. Seems to lag behind the conversation a bit. I'll have to troubleshoot. I wonder if running byobu/screen is part of the problem.
- carbocation 14y agoI also run a similar setup and am trying out mosh now. I agree re: the lag in irssi. Additionally, if I start typing into irssi and then rapidly delete the text, I can delete the channel name temporarily: [#startups] I was thiknin^H^H^H^H^H^H [#start
- Maakuth 14y agoYeah, this is due to their clever predictive local echo not being that clever all the time. When the client sees that sending ^H actually results in character disappearing, it imitates that behaviour locally for next ^H:s making you experience less lag. Most of the time it works well but there's these edge cases with funny results.
- LeonidasXIV 14y agoWell, my simple solution would be to delete the channel name from the prompt because it does not serve me any purpose. Too bad I don't actually know how to do this in irssi, I already looked for an option.
- coolj 14y agoYou can use "/statusbar prompt disable" (and "/save" to make it persistent).
