Help! Created new account on lemmy.ca, and can't log in.

I created an account, set a password, and now when I try to use them, they don't get me off the login page.

If I change either my username or password by a character, it clearly says 'credentials are wrong,' implying that my unmolested credentials are correct - but it won't log me in.

I've tried different browsers, turned off uBlock Origin, but nothing helps.

Any advice?

did you try resetting your password? actually, on second thought, if you didn't receive an e-mail confirmation, then you may not get the password reset e-mail. I can look into this more later tonight.

@smorks I figured it out. I'm an idiot.

I put in the wrong email address - one that may not even exist (and if it does exist, it's not mine.)

I blame the fever I had this morning. Is there any way you can just trash the account and I can start again, or correct the email address?
