I have been having a ton of fun messing with this, hooking up a dock and a kb/mouse, so funny using my phone this way. More of a party trick than actually useful, for me anyway. if one didn't have laptops, i could see it being handy.

What have you guys been using termux for? The biggest value I saw from it was using ffmpeg on it, and ssh for fun. I can't really figure out what other uses I may want it for. Backups maybe?

I'm not rooted, so I can't do a lot on this crappy samsung, but it's fun to play around.

I recently got a Pixel Fold so I've been using Termux to run Plasma Desktop on it and Qt Creator, Visual Studio Code for development work. The larger screen is great. I prefer using Linux phones for development (postmarketOS) but unfortunately pmOS isn't available on any foldables and the screen size is really significant.
