Unable to negotiate with 1.2.3.4 port 22: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-rsa,ssh-dss

While trying to connect to an older esxi server I got the error message Unable to negotiate with 1.2.3.4 port 22: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-rsa,ssh-dss

I was wondering.

The solution $EDITOR ~/.ssh/config

Host 1.2.3.4
    User root
    HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss
