Here is Termux devs reply to Termux user:

> ... Time to upgrade your devices...[0]

Who is bad guy here according this quote?

P.S. It would not be so bad if devs just says "we don't support such devices", but instead devs declared to upgrade device in reply to user...

I'm not seeing a problem there?

I mean, I'll admit its tone is quite direct - I guess they could have copy-pasted some corporate-speak about what a difficult decision it was and how very sorry they were about having to make it, instead of being so direct and unambiguous. But that's pretty trivial IMHO.
