    If this is https://github.com/termux/termux-docker, then you should be able to specify user on command line using UID. Like docker run -it --user 1000 .... Note that Termux-in-Docker is not same as Termux and is very stripped down on functionality (e.g. you don't have a proper DNS inside). Don't use it in production.

    Binaries in Termux aren't special. You can run them on PC as well, considering you have suitable execution environment (e.g. https://github.com/termux/termux-docker).

    Shell and any other command line utilities are Linux programs. They are executed directly by Linux kernel and do not require Android OS to be running. In general, you don't need Android at all to be able to run utilities as soon as you have some basic libs from it (libc, libm + dynamic linker), here is a Termux environment packaged as Docker image to use on PC: https://github.com/termux/termux-docker.
