Interesting. I like this. No need for a cookie banner.

they get your ssh public key which is a unique identifier so that should be disclosed.

Really cool interface. Is there any list of such servers publicly available through ssh?

It's sold out and the only option if you actually connect via ssh is to give them your email address so they can send you updates.

Makes me wonder if this is just a ploy to email harvest and there never was any coffee being sold.

Love the idea! Congratulations (?) on being sold out! My constructive feedback is that the text contrast is so low (in iTerm2 anyway) I can barely read anything. I thought only web pages had that problem, but I guess sufficiently sophisticated TUI apps have designer color problems too! What's next, incredibly tiny terminal fonts? (jk, designers...sort of)

I wasn’t the one who made this, fwiw.
