All the phone you need

No SD slot

Hmm, nope. Not all the phone I need.

No idea, probably because it makes their shit more useful or something. Seems like their goal for the last 10ish years has been to enshitify the OS and water it down more and more with each release.

Additional to burgersc12’s comment, I think the app has always been hosted in both locations, but the team has switched hands and the original app developer basically went MIA so the package on Google is stuck in limbo.

Not entirely sure how they’d go about banning it, the official location for it is F-Droid. The one on Google Play is like 500 years out of date.

My guess was that their overall goal was to take the market share and shut down Termux, then cancel their own terminal so they can make Android worse than they already have lol.

Even if this is as good as (or better than) Ubuntu installed in Termux, I’m still not sure I’d trust it as anything more than an attempt at Google trying to hit Termux’s user base so it shuts down, then they shut down their terminal too.

So like, a watered down version of Termux?

Can’t you still remove this stuff via ADB?

Yeah, I honestly hate it TBH. It’s made screenshottimg things much more awkward.

Basically nerfed a feature I use all the time to make a feature I almost never use easier to use… I get I’m not the only android user in the world, but it would be nice to be able to pick between which mode you want.
