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 # 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.
