More recently I started using Termius due it's great feature set, but scrollback issues and the $30 annual cost for premium features left me wondering about other options. Then you'd need to 'side load' it anyways. Compiling it from source is possible, but not that simple. Some time ago, I became aware of Blink because of it's Mosh support, but never bought it due to the price tag. Today I researched some possibilities and curated my findings here. Being a technical / server admin type, a good SSH client is one of those tools I need to have. Since purchasing an iPad Pro (10.5') w/ Smart Keyboard, I consider doing serious work on an iPad to be possible, if I have the right tools.

If you find problems, or have any comments at all, feel free to contact me via Twitter. I'm publishing it now, in case anyone finds it useful. While I certianly have many half written and incomplete posts I intended to write and finished, this seems farily well researched, organized, and complete. I'm unsure why I never published this article.
