> and blink shell https://blink.sh/ to have a high quality iOS shell with a mosh and ssh client built right in to resume at any time

I really like Termius, have you tried it? I think I tested out Blink when I was trying various SSH/shell apps and chose Termius over it, but it’s been so long now that I completely forget why.

EDIT: does Blink give you a local shell as well like vs only SSH/mosh?

Yes, Blink gives you a local shell with some tools (not extendable), including Vim. It is even possible to mount a remote repository (we call it a Bookmark), and edit locally.

Give it another chance if you want to, I’m always happy to help.

Is Blink’s shell different from something like iSH which gives you a local shell inside an Alpine Linux VM? Is it some kind of native iOS shell or is it also a Linux VM of some kind?
