Setting up SSH keys for all my computers (lemmy.world)

Hi everyone, every time I setup a Pi project server I have a hard time since I can only access that device from the computer where I created the image since I add the SSH key during setup, but I would like to be able to ssh from my android and my other laptop in case I'm out on the road and away from home.

How can I add the other keys for the other devices to a single Pi without using the user name and password as this is also given me problems because ssh wants to try using keys and if it does not find them it just fails instead of asking me to enter the password (also, because it's not really safe).

I know just how you feel. I have two servers, a phone, and two laptops that all may need to intercommunicate at any given time. For this I use Warpgate: https://github.com/warp-tech/warpgate

There's a tiny bit of a learning curve I feel but after setting up a couple connections you'll get the hang of it. Teleport is a similar solution but I don't like to use tools I don't understand and it's a bit more complex.
