I hope this saves Termux

It's unlikely to save it, per se; it might, hopefully, obsolete Termux for most uses (why recompiled debs when you can just install Debian?), but won't help with Android API surface that Google keeps breaking (if they didn't give a native app raw filesystem access or let it run in the background, will they let a VM do so?).

UserLAnd already allows you to just install Debian and other distros on non-rooted devices.

Note: I am developer of UserLAnd.

The only thing that would save termux would be to provide a UNIX like experience on top of Java APIs, trying to pretend NDK is Linux won't save them.
