If there was malware on your machine that skimmed your password, it might be compromised. Better change it on a different device before logging in again. But that would amount to criminal malfeasance or at least criminal negligence on the part of your university. But better be safe than sorry.
Thank you!
Advice on the phone? I’ll do that first since it’s more important for now, and get enough info about linux to decide…
Google “factory reset” for whatever model of phone you have.
If I connect my personal gmail account on it (which I used on laptot too, with the school account) would they be able to access it again?

oh ok but that wouldn’t be done by the university I think, is that what you mean? taking my password and stuff
They absolutely should not do things like that. But I wouldn’t bet the house on that.
Just gonna create a new email then… should be fine then, right? haha
As long as you always keep your tinfoil hat on, yes.
