I largely disable SSH and use TLS only with full range of versions listed. Some websites dont like that setting. SSH is still not very secure and and there is no fix, but for that matter TLS is only slightly more secure. You're thinking of "SSL", not "SSH". SSL was the forerunner to TLS, and what you said about that is all correct.
SSH is "Secure Shell", a login protocol that gives you a Bash (or similar) commandline on a (typically remote) server.

Yes, you are correct. It was SSL that I meant to write.
I do use SSH when it is available. I hides most of the handshake data from public view.
