So I was actually just struggling with that myself, also in the Memmy app in case that isn’t clear
What I did was add my account (again)
There was no warning or anything, and it populated the list with two of me.
At that point, a “delete account” option appeared under both of them. So I guess in normal circumstances, it wants you to keep one account around at all times?
I deleted one of them, and the app basically reinitialized. Both were gone and it showed me the welcome screen.
I logged back in, and now everything is back to normal
I just did edit account and then saved, it seemed to trick it into logging in again (secrets on my instance were also reset).
Ah interesting. I’ve had multiple accounts from the start so it was much easier for me. Just removed my main account and added it back.
I did this, but I just didn’t delete either accounts and it worked fine. Idk if it’s detrimental to have two of the same but it worked for me.
Interesting. Definitely could be made clearer, I’ll make a post on the GitHub later about some of my suggestions.
Whoops, glitched double response.
Finally I found good instructions, was about to delete and reinstall until I followed this!
