Most of them (besides weechat-android and quasseldroid which use bouncers/relays) seem to have fallen out of maintenance; Goguma appears to be currently maintained and updated as a pure standalone client and would be what I’d recommend trying first.

This is unfortunately a choice the Nautilus (GNOME) folks have taken; in other file managers (Thunar for XFCE, Caja for MATE, etc.) the ability to use custom actions are a first class citizen. Within Nautilus, the nautilus-actions
project was superseded by the filemanager-actions
project which was then archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/filemanager-actions - a custom GNOME action might be something like gio open /path/to/terminal.desktop %d
(where %d is the directory from Nautilus)
There are 3rd party attempts to recreate what was stripped out of/abandoned in Nautilus such as this one: https://github.com/bassmanitram/actions-for-nautilus
Went down the rabbit hole for you while drinking some tea listening to the rain - it looks like in the future there is a new app/proposal for FreeDesktop to use xdg-terminal-exec
as the new/default way and it’s hard coded into the GNOME “gio” code over here (ctrl+f search xdg-terminal-exec): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/blob/main/gio/gdesktopappinfo.c
That said, it looks like the nautilus-open-terminal Nautilus extension is shipped as part of gnome-terminal
so it’s hard coded to run that terminal not using the above code. Instead, you’d need to leverage a different extension called nautilus-open-any-terminal
for now until the landscape changes: https://github.com/Stunkymonkey/nautilus-open-any-terminal
(disclaimer: not using GNOME/Nautilus or Fedora, theorycraft from me)
tl;dr - depends not only on the device but also carrier and region. Google specifically made changes to stop devs from doing it. Full explanation to read: https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/record-calls-on-your-android-phone
