When using the terminal on code-server (VSCode probably does it as well), input is instantly shown on screen (grayed out, until the server actually responds):

When I connect to the remote machine using the OpenSSH client, however, the input is echoed only after a short delay. That's usually not very noticeable when latency is low, but makes it hard to type on slower connections.

Using the -T option to disable TTY allocation solves the issue, but severely limits the usability of the terminal.

Is there any SSH client with a similar feature to code-server?

    I think mosh is supposed to have something like that, but I don't think I ever saw it work too well. YMMV. Something like that might also be implemented on the terminal emulator instead of the SSH client. (mosh effectively being both...) Commented Feb 10, 2024 at 16:22
  • @ilkkachu mosh seems to be what I'm looking for, but it doesn't support ProxyJump yet [1] [2] (which I currently rely on). I might try using a VPN instead. Regardless, you should post it as an answer. Commented Feb 10, 2024 at 18:10

    Why would you want this feature in the ssh client instead of in the terminal program? Commented Feb 10, 2024 at 19:42
  • @SottoVoce No reason in particular. I'd accept a terminal emulator as an answer too. Commented Feb 11, 2024 at 17:03
