Right now, I’m working on the planning stages for a video game. I don’t know if it’ll actually go anywhere, but it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. I haven’t told anyone except you guys, not even my wife.

Shoot me your old username and I’ll check it out.
Technically, deletion would need to be done by your old instance admins, although with federation, that content is also everywhere in the fediverse and might not be completed deleted.
Thanks. The old username was Spitz.
Also, the only way I can reply to people is through the website version - none of the apps are letting me reply. They show errors every time. I’m on Android. Would you have any idea why? It’s like Lemmy is fighting to reject me haha. 😔
On which instance? Turns out there’s a few Spitz out there
Lemmy.ml
Hmmmm, you don’t seem actually banned, but .ml probably didn’t skip 0.19.2 which had a bug that required to clear cookies and whatnot before logging in would work postupgrade.
Which is one of the main reasons why we hadn’t upgraded yet, fixed in 0.19.3, but I’m not sure of the behavior of you don’t skip 0.19.2.
Anyway, try logging into your account in a browser, in a private navigation window to be sure, I would expect it to work.
I tried that. Now it keeps saying “incorrect login credentials”. Maybe I was hacked?
At least you don’t seem banned to me…
If you used an email at sign up you should be able to reset your password using the “forgot my password” link when logging in.
If there’s still an issue, you’d have to reach out to an admin on lemmy.ml.
Whether that’s restoring access or deleting your data.
Maybe @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml.
Good luck
@Anywhere@lemm.ee the modlog for that account shows that it isn’t banned (except for from one community). If you have an email address associated with it you can use the “forgot password” function to reset its password, but otherwise there is no way to recover it.
Ah I don’t think I signed up with the email. Dang. Thanks anyway.
Ah I need to have an email address already linked to it, which I don’t. I guess that’s that. Thanks anyway.
Yea I guess there’s no other way to really confirm it was your account without an email. Not that I doubt your story or anything, but restoring access without verifying email would open up a boatload of account hijacking shenanigans.
