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

    Ah that sucks, was just talking about Lemmy’s incomplete 2FA in a different post https://lemmy.world/post/1288267

    You’re right, unlike most websites/apps using 2FA Lemmy does not display a QR code.

    You probably need to contact the admins for your Lemmy instance & see what they can do. (lemmy.world in your case)
