Probably some suspicious login attempts. Try resetting your password.

Resetting the password worked! Thanks a lot.

@gordonthefatengine @Lemmchen
And start using a password vault like bitwarden

[–] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

And if OP's password vault is their Firefox account? Somehow some way you have you remember at least one password!

[–] gordonthefatengine@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

I will. Until now, I've saved my passwords on my browser itself- all almost all of my passwords further require 2fa for logging in. I'll use Bitwarden from now on.

@gordonthefatengine Hiya. Have you been trying to get in and been rejected a couple of times?

Hello Paul.

I have done nothing, really. Was logged in already but tonight as I opened Firefox, I saw I was logged out. So I tried to log in and I get this screen...

EDIT: I solved it- resetting the password did it for me!

[–] plwt@mstdn.social 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

@gordonthefatengine Sorry that happened, but great to hear you are back in.
