I'm quite happy with Termux on Android. Allows me to rsync my data for backup or imports, I can ssh into real Linux machines, process images with ImageMagick, etc. Sharing documents from inside other apps works too (you can set up scripts in Termux as receivers). Sure, full control of a device would be great, but I'm better off with Android after I migrated from IOS.

Bad news: Android blocks exec in newer API versions. Termux isn't going to be able to use newer API features as they release, unless they rewrite their own ELF loader. exec is now only allowed on executables within the apk, nothing fetched from termux's repositories.
