Posted in the account requests (I just approved it):

HELP: I enabled two-factor authentication on my other account, sneak, and when I logged out, the TOTP doesn’t work. The site didn’t give me seed words to log back in case this failed, and now I’m locked out of my account. Can you assist?

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3325 holy fuck that’s bad, lemmy generates TOTP links that don’t work with most authenticators and doesn’t verify with an initial 2fa code before enabling it

@[email protected], you may be able to unlock your original account if you do the “forgot my password” flow, which apparently lets you disable 2fa (which also feels pretty insecure). that’ll require your account to have an email associated with it though. otherwise as soon as I’m at my computer I’ll run the query in that github issue to disable 2fa on your account and ping you when it’s fixed.
