Hello again, posted a few weeks ago about turning on 2fa by mistake and that I'd turned it off soon after. When I went to login again on desktop I was prompted for 2fa token, a token I do not have.

Now afew weeks later I still have not resolved this issue. Is this something that an admin would even have the power to rectify? If not then could they delete my account to free up my email. I am currently using eternity a client app for Lemmy feddit and does not have account tools to delete..

Hello mate, did you hear anything back from Tom when you messaged?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sadly no, ive sent a second message but I see he's not been active sinse august first so might be busy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He is around, as he updated the instance recently, even if he hasn't posted. However, I don't know of any other way to contact him.

However, let's see if we can't Beetlejuice him up: @[email protected].

I’ve not been able to contact him. I fear there may be something wrong.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm sure everything is fine, he's just busy elsewhere.

And your basis for that reassurance is?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm a natural optimist.

I think we need to do a ritual where we sacrifice another Tom. I vote Tom Scott to be the sacrifice

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think we need one that won't be missed. Any Tom, ~~Dick or Harry~~ will do.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's an unworthy sacrifice

Ah, I see your point, we need an important soul to win the favour of The Gods. Tom Scott it is, because you can't have Tom Baker.
