Curious.
PuTTYgen supports the following SSH key types:
- DSA
- RSA
- ECDSA
- EdDSA
- Ed25519
- Ed448
OpenSSH supports:
- RSA
- ECDSA
- ECDSA-sk
- Ed25519
- Ed25519-sk
Given that the overwhelming majority of #SSH servers are provided by #OpenSSH, it's unfortunate that the two projects don't agree on key types.
