Is there anything I can do, or is that account lost forever now? Resetting the password doesn’t work (natch). Not a huge deal, but it’s upsetting because I was modding a community from that account. Any tips/contacts would be appreciated. Cheers.
*** update: as per commenters suggesting, tried resetting password for that account once again, and I was successfully able to log in, go to my settings, then remove 2FA, and all seems good now
You must log in or register to comment.
FYI if this is because of the cross-site attack on Lemmy.world you should know 2FA will NOT help as the attacker accesses the JWT key directly which has already been signed in w/2FA. The only way to mitigate it is to use a native app and not the web or PWA version.
