| Jun 7, 2022 at 4:08 | comment | added | dave_thompson_085 | @MitchMcMabers: according to the source in/thru 9.0 it's still accepted but ignored and undocumented; I have tested this for 8.9 on (recently-released) Ubuntu 22.04. (That's why I called it 'not needed' rather than 'obsolete' or 'removed'.) | |

@dave_thompson_085 Yeah, I'm chiming in here to confirm that -o doesn't even EXIST anymore in new OpenSSH versions.

| Jun 17, 2021 at 0:37 | comment | added | cowlinator | FYI, the main factor that caused the author of Practical Cryptography WIth Go to declare that ED25519 is more secure than RSA is that ED25519 is more robust against PRNG (Pseudo-Random Number Generator) failures. | |

As that gitlab page correctly says (except for 'inclusive' where it should be 'left-inclusive') -o is not needed in OpenSSH 7.8 (2018-08) up because new format is now the default.
