Feature request: Per-host weak cipher toggle

[ab-a]

Weak cipher support can only be enabled or disabled globally.
It would be great to have this setting configurable per host, so that older servers requiring legacy ciphers don’t force weaker security across all connections.

Use case:
Only one of my servers still needs a weak cipher for compatibility. Currently, I have to disable stronger security for everything just to connect to that single host. A per-host toggle would keep things flexible and secure everywhere else.

Hey 👋

Thank you so much for reaching out and for your feedback 🙏

You are right.
Current workaround is to use ssh_config file in order to apply per server :

WebSSH isn't a subscription based app (you buy it for lifetime) but if you like my work and want to support me further, you can become a sponsor or you can just buy me a tiny coffee ☕️

Thank you very much for the quick response, really appreciate it.

I missed that part in the docs. While this option would still be a nice touch, I totally understand if you decide to close this.

I prefer to let it open as other users may want the same feature you expected
