Lost Mozilla Discourse and Connect accounts after changing Mozilla account email. Is Mozilla's auth system broken?

I changed my Mozilla account email on https://accounts.firefox.com/settings, afterwards when I would try to log into discourse.mozilla.org or connect.mozilla.org, both would have me create new accounts, even when I would try the old email. And that defeats the purpose of changing emails, I don’t want Mozilla to have it.

I ran into this problem too. I changed the email on my Mozilla account, and then I couldn’t log into Discourse anymore.

Changing my email back on my Mozilla account allowed me to log into Discourse again. I could still have both emails in Mozilla, I just had to set the “default” back to my old email.

I just tried it and it doesn’t work
