So they can either put in a monstrous effort to end up with a worse product or not be on the Play Store. I know what I'd choose. The kind of people who want Termux are capable of downloading an APK, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

APKs are deprecated, replaced by Android App Bundles, adapt or die.

You keep saying that, but I don't see Termux dying unless Google straight up disallows fork() for all apps, even old ones.

Given that fork() isn't part of stable APIs list, it might end in seccomp list.

But there is hope, just like with mingw, termux can use the OS official APIs to launch processes.
