Termux has gotten more and more hosed over by Android SDK changes, hosed by Google locking down storage, and what bits of data can be run.

Its already to the point where Termux is only available on F-droid, & is stuck on Android 9 levels of the SDK.

I also think there's different use cases than an ssh app. If you just need an ssh app, then why even bother with Termux (because .ssh/config is a pretty well known is somewhat of an answer but still doesn't require termux).

Supposedly Android has Wayland support too. Being able to run a VM witg GUI Linux apps is potentially very exciting. With hope it sparks real interest, increases the amount of people using Linux, alike how WSL2 has done.

You still need to run your ssh client somehow, and last time I looked termux+openssh was straight-up a nicer experience than anything else I could find on Android (which I always found funny, but there it is).
