Has anyone heard of SSH public key authentication failing despite using the correct keys & public key authentication being fully set up on the server? I'm having this issue with remotely logging in on my computer that has KDE Neon installed. I have the exact same SSH setup as on my server & my laptop that have Fedora installed, but it does not work & the only thing it tells me is "permission denied (publickey)". ssh -vvv doesn't give much more information besides confirming that the correct keys are being loaded & the remote host is properly recognized & its host keys verified. Everything that is happening points to the setup being correct, except for the key failing to authenticate me for some reason. I have even tried generating a new key pair & registering that one & removing the old one, which confirmed that it's not the key itself that could be the issue, but I still can't log in.

Password verification works fine when I turn that on & disable public key authentication.
