This seemed suspicious at first, but https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ (the original official site) confirms it's real.

The man himself also posted about it on his social media https://hachyderm.io/@simontatham/115025974777386803

Earlier quoted context omitted.

The first time I ever saw it, the text already looked better than cmd.exe via conhost.

Ever since Windows gained Terminal and OpenSSH, my usage of Putty has almost entirely ceased except for serial for embedded systems work. Then I realised Putty ships with a CLI version which I now use in Terminal for accessing serial.
