 @k00b trying to link my Nostr acc to my account in SN settings, after I confirm the auth event in Alby SN shows "Auth failed. Try again or choose a different method." - what might be wrong?

 Alby says that or sn does?

 Could this pubkey be linked to another account?

It just worked for me.

Being linked to another account is the most common type of failure

 I did login with nostr once, did that create another account? If so, how can I link the two, or delete the new one?

 Ah! 

1. login to the throwaway account that it's linked to
2. unlink it
3. logout
4. login back in to your main account (if you logged out of it)
5. link it
6. purple pills fall from the sky 😄
