Hello,

I have been using lists.sh for building lists, and sharing them around for some time. When I recently looked at my lists page (https://bayindirh.lists.sh), I’ve reached to an empty site instead of my usual lists.

To understand what happened to my lists, I logged in to lists.sh via SSH, and found out that my username has changed to “bayindirhtmp”. When I want to change to my old username, bayindirh, I get an “Invalid name” error.

Is it possible for me to get my old username, and continue using that?

I love the services pico.sh provides and want to use them for a long long time, and I’m ready to support the service monetarily, even.

Thanks for building these services around pico.sh,

Cheers,

Hakan

Hi!

Thanks for reaching out.

When we merged users and couldn't determine if the same person own both accounts on lists.sh and prose.sh we ended up creating two users: <username>tmp and <username>

You probably own both usernames at this point.  So what you can do now is use the `bayindirh` username to upload your lists.

```
scp *.txt bayindirh@lists.sh:/
```

If you used different key-pairs for each user or service, you should now use your old prose.sh keypair for lists now.

I'd be happy to move your lists over to `bayindirh` but I think it would be better if you just re-upload them under your global username `bayindirh`.

Let me know if that doesn't make sense, happy to help debug or triage any issues.
