Hi all,

it seems I mistakenly logged in with my GitHub account although I already had an account linked to my email (that wasn’t linked to GitHub yet), and now I can’t link my GitHub federated identity because:

> Federated identity returned by github is already linked to another user.

Is there a possibility to delete my superfluous account, so that I can link my GitHub account to the right one?

Hi @imagejan sorry you’re having trouble with the accounts - I’ll send you a private message here in discourse to resolve it.
