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

This happened to me on my beehaw account when they first announced 2FA. The accounts are now gone for us. Just saw the edit... going to see if that works for me. I might be hosed though because I'm not sure I entered an email.
