I made the apocalyptic mistake of making a genzedong xyz account through the Matrix site, and it’s one of those things that requires the blood of a virgin and the tail feather of a phoenix or whatever, and will spit out most passwords with that is a very common password. I fucked up by not writing it down, even though you aren’t supposed to, so now I have forgotten it.

I click “Password forgotten” in fluffychat.im/web/#/home and when I enter my email as prompted, I get an “unrecognised request” error. So I tried adding a recovery email from the Android app, from Settings > Security > Change Password > Password recovery and pressing the + button. This produces an Untrusted server " error, very good quotes use. I tried several email domains and no dice.

I beg of you to help. It would be cool if recovery email actually worked.

    My condolences, FluffyChat is complete garbage. Also, using some weird homeserver means you need to have a lot of faith in the people running it. Generally self-hosting works best for a small pod of people jumping into public spaces on the main homeserver. Not sure what the situation is but delighted to see people moving to an app that actually provides what Telegram once promised, growing pains aside 😁

      The solution to this was to message the people running my homeserver, which did work lmao. I ended up switching to a matrix homeserver account because images actually work though. Wouldn’t know how to selfhost…
