>> it's simply not practical because I need to use Android apps to hail rides and contact friends who often use only closed-source messenger apps.

That is currently where I am as well.

Termux has been a wonderful way to get simple programming tasks done on the go because I can just plug in an external keyboard, mouse, and monitor and have a command line, text editors, compilers, etc.

I am concerned about how Android 10's limitations will impact Termux since I would hate to lose such a useful tool.

Seeing what GNU/Linux phones are out there at least provides some other options about where I might want to go next once my current phone ages out.
