Uh how do i get GH cli to work on Linux? I tried pushing a project and it just asks for a password, and PW support is deprecated

No luck, i tried that and https login and it still asks for a PW when I push

HTTPS

git remote add origin https://github.com/user/repo.git

SSH

git remote add origin git@github.com:user/repo.git

Did you use the correct syntax for SSH?

I'm not sure about the exact commands, but you do something like gh auth login to authenticate the CLI and then something like gh ssh setup to change ssh's config file to authorize using the GH CLI.
