"textContent": "I was just reminded why I am deprecating Android. I was optimistic with Termux that I decided to install it on my phone. Ran into problems installing from the F-Droid store. It installed fine on the tablet but not on phone. By chance I tried the one on the Google PlayStore (if it shows up there its cause it works right?. And yes, that one does work). Apparently the one on the PlayStore uses a separate code base. Anyways on the change logs you can see all the gymnastics the developer has to do to get it to work. Google can’t be trusted. It has a habit of breaking stuff. Amazon dropped Android on the TV platform. That tells you something. Its best to consider lowering dependence on Google architectures.",
