Yes, except google is slowly killing Termux with a thousand cuts, while they will kill this only after a few years.
Google just doesn't understand that they're killing off the only people who want to buy their shitting products. How many people use Androids? How many people use Pixels? I would feel most people want these phones because we're tech savvy people who don't want the abstracted stuff Apple sells.
I thought Android's market is people who don't want to pay for iOS for various reasons, mostly due to cost.
There are way way more android phones in the world, but its mostly outside the US, so people pretend Apple is king.

Yes kinda. But if you buy the cheapest iphone and just use it until eol, it's not too bad. Problem is the cheapest iphone, isn't too cheap anymore.
They do? Can you elaborate?
Author faces regularly many issues when trying do make a new version of Termux to yet another set of googles demands or restrictions, sometimes unable to update play store version for years. As an (just) example, see this issue: https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/wiki/Termux-and-Android-10
