SOLVED: After getting spooked turned on 2FA for lemmy.world account, but the code to scan for my Auth app never appeared, the screen refreshed, logged me out, and I can't get back into my account now - eviltoast

Is there anything I can do, or is that account lost forever now? Resetting the password doesn’t work (natch). Not a huge deal, but it’s upsetting because I was modding a community from that account. Any tips/contacts would be appreciated. Cheers.

*** update: as per commenters suggesting, tried resetting password for that account once again, and I was successfully able to log in, go to my settings, then remove 2FA, and all seems good now

    Can you elaborate? I’ve got it enabled and working on my personal instance running 0.18.1. Is there an authentication check that isn’t actually happening in the login flow or something?
