Can you be tracked for marketing purposes on a "dumb-phone"? (sh.itjust.works)

I'm aware that carrying a phone means that I can be tracked with cell towers and that's fine.

But is there some sort of tracking that can be done on modern dumb-phones that make relevant ads show up(on spotify/youtube) that are based on where the phone has been?

Thanks I'm a newb

Would you hangout with yourself? in c/[email protected]

I would hang out with myself and get a lot done. We'd code an app, make a podcast for antisocial people, and plant trees.

We'd agree to use the same encrypted messenger.

I've never been good at socializing and it just makes me exhausted.

How resilient I've proven to be. I feel like I've been held down all my life but I got a college degree and now I'm going back for another one. I owe a lot of it to new family members.

What are the career fields where you definitely don't need a LinkedIn? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Some might say that no one needs LinkedIn at all but there are some jobs that people struggle to attain so they get on LinkedIn. I have noticed though that I've mostly seen users who are in things like tech, marketing, business, and blue collar jobs on that platform. I didn't see many people on there who work in medical professions but it could have just been a tailored experience for me. Are there career fields where you wouldn't even think about making a LinkedIn?

Okay thanks. I'm thinking of sticking with deb packages also at the moment because a lot of apps on the flathub website say "Unverified"

Is Spotify desktop unsafe to install on Ubuntu? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Basically, my entire system is FOSS but I'm tempted to install the Spotify .deb package. Would that give Spotify access to info about my system?

I want to move out from Ubuntu and use something else. in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

If you're seeking something simple to use where you may never need to open the terminal, I'd say ZorinOS(Lite).

You can also test out Debian if you don't mind a bit of tinkering on the terminal. You'll have to add yourself as a user to the sudoers list first thing but there are plenty of 2-second video tutorials on how.

For both distros, if you are searching for support, you'd search "on Ubuntu" and basically the same would apply.

I'm on Debian 12 KDE and i need to update the clock to Arizona time but it's not available.

Honestly, it won't even let me change it to California time. After entering my password it denies my request.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Edit Neither my user or root password works for this
