Hey guys, just like the title says, I'm trying to reset my password but I can't find any fucking info on it. I forgot my password. There's no link to reset your password. There's no nothing on it. Sooooooo how do you do it?? I got to do food so I'm trying to log in on my new phone but obviously you don't ever remember your passwords. Every fucking account you make so I need to reset my password so you guys see my dilemma.

Yeah, you can't do that in app. I don't think you can on any of the current apps.

Have to go to the website via browser

I think you need to go to your instance on the browser and do it. So go to lemmy.world

Also consider using a password manager like KeePass then you won't forget it!

Sync is an app tho. How the fuck am I supposed to do it in a browser when sync there's a fucking app? The dev is awesome and I've been supporting him for years. How the hell did this guy just have a oversight like this?

It is an app but it is a "Third party" app, IE not an official Lemmy app.

So it won't have high enough access to user data to do password changes.

Look at getting a password manager like Bitwarden to manage and store all of your passwords instead of trying to remember them.

Sync is an app, yes, but it's an app for...?

Lemmy is connected software and entry-point you signed up at is lemmy.world. Therefore you should go to them for support.
