I have been using SFTP/SSH comfortably and haven't faced any issue. It could be a temporary issue.

Can't access our servers from home either.
I have changed SSH service default port and it seems working fine.

I'm not in the office now and have limited access from mobile. Will try it out and let you know. But I did access our test servers using SFTP and SSH and it didn't have any issue. I use BSNL FTTH connection.

Update: A lot of people seem to be facing issue with port22 connection, and I think the problem could be real. I'm unable to verify it at the moment. Not sure if this s region specific.

Got this message at random while I was performing routine server maintenance task. Not sure what I did because it popped up while I was closing a few browser tabs.

For maximum security they should add, "Replace Windows with Linux" to the general guidelines.

True, but it's still damn difficult for the masses to use. You may argue that the GUI distros are tad easy; but it's the familiarity with the interface that keeps people going. I switched from Windows to OSX (now MacOS) and have began finding Windows difficult to use 😁 .
