Windows
there are many many ways to connect to an SSH server on Windows, here's a sample of some of them.
the fastest: via powershell

binary that you can use to connect to servers such as southlondon.cc.
to connect, just open up a powershell window and type
ssh <your username>@southlondon.cc -i <ssh private key path>
if you see a warning asking you to verify the fingerprint, just type 'yes' and it'll connect you up to the server. congrats! you're now connected to south london!
the unix-y-ist: cmder + git bash
getting cmder is pretty easy, just head on down to cmder.net and click 'Download Full'. the full download includes Git Bash, which emulates the bash command line inside windows. just unzip the folder and double click Cmder.exe
.

ssh <your username>@southlondon.cc -i <ssh private key path>
congrats! you're in.
macOS and linux
crack open a terminal and run
