So will this replace Termux?
So that's why google is killing termux.
How is Google killing termux?
By breaking the play store version often. It was not possible for author to update it for several years. Seems it got better recently, but still, to have a full fledged version of Termux, you need to install it from a different source - f-droid, ideally.
https://github.com/termux-play-store
Side note for anyone reading, if you have an android please get f-droid, the google play store is an apocalyptic shithole and is 100% untrustable for finding safe functional apps, even very simple ones like a flashlight app or basic image gallery browser.
It is honestly apalling and I don't know how any google employees working on android get home from work at the end of the day and feel ok about the impact on the world of the thing they are working on.
The play store is an atrocious, embarassing failure that actively makes the life of anybody who interacts with it worse.
Maybe..? Depends how good this Google Terminal app will be. I guess
