I did the same today but with the admin account password for a whole Lemmy server. In the end I had to configure an email server for it so I could use the lost password link to reset it. This is the second time I forgot to press save in my password manager after generating a password and just closing the tab.
sooo…i made this account here but dont remember my password. if I delete this account, will i be able to make a new one with this name?
Didn’t you have to give your email on signup…? I just did
it appears that the “i forgot my password” button doesnt do anything
If you enter in your email in the login screen then you can click forget password.
yup, thats what im trying in a couole of different browsers :/
It’s a weird lost password system. Go to the login page, enter your email leaving the password blank and then press the lost password button.
You can go to the settings menu and add your email address retrospectively if you want.
