Split account error

Somehow my login seems to have been divided into two accounts, and this one doesn't have my post history or my access to the Lounge. Can someone merge them? (Is that even a thing in NodeBB?)

@Mason_Wheeler you have had at least 3 accounts:

I should only have one email account I'm signing up for things with on here. Would you mind PMing me with some more details about this?

In Discourse of course it's easy to merge an account.

Wow, if only we had been running a forum software that supported account merging back when we were on our previous software.

@pie_flavor Pretty sure that's our fault, since we had people create accounts, then had accounts migrated over from Community Server that didn't automerge, then when we asked how to do it manually got a bunch of
from Jeff in response. I feel sorry for @sam and @riking having to put up with all the terrible, no good policy decisions @end made, and doubly for all the vitriol we sent them for @end's disingenuous bullshit.

Really? You can't tell https://orb.an6.us/users/riking and https://botsin.space/@it_was_inevitable are different software?

Barely. And I could chalk that up entirely to theming. So, Pleroma is actually just a Mastodon theme.

Other way around, actually.
The Pleroma devs are so bad at UI design that they have an option to use the Mastodon UI that they copy-pasted and hooked up to their backend.
