If you often connect in SSH on your servers, from a Linux, Windows or macOS machine, through a terminal, you may have to do a mental exercise each time to find the IP or the name or the port to connect to.
But that time is over thanks to Sshs, an interface in the terminal that simply lists the contents of your file. ~/.ssh/config so you can connect to it easily.
To install it on macOS:
By the way, I don’t know if you’ve seen but the host Hostinger offers super interesting offers in terms of web hosting. It’s not too expensive to start and self-host. (Partner link)

brew install sshs
To install it on Windows with Chocolatey:
choco install sshs

And for Linux, there are Arch packages and of course the sources (Go see the Github).
Then to manage the list of your machines, it happens as I said in the file ~/.ssh/config of which here is an example:
Host *
AddKeysToAgent yes
UseKeychain yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Host "Mon serveurr"
HostName server1.example.com
User root
Port 22
Host "Via le proxy"
HostName server2.example.com
User someone
Port 22
ProxyCommand ssh -W %h:%p proxy.example.com
