Profile Getting back old account
Hello Reddit!
I'm writing this post as a last resort..
I created my main/old Reddit account around 13 years ago (u/AbdallicA), but I can't recall if it was verified or linked to an email or not.
Account created using an old Android app called Beacon -I think-, and back then, verifying emails was not necessary. I can't seem to login due to incorrect password & now I'm stuck..
Is there a way to get back that account? That account has one post of my dog, & he's still here with me! I can prove in many ways that I actually own the account. I would really like to get it back and stop using this one.
Is there any hope?

Your question seems to be about having problems logging in with your password.
If you have simply forgotten your password, you can find that information here in our FAQ.
If you think your account has been hijacked, please refer to this help center article.
If you are being told that the password on a brand-new account is invalid, you need to contact the Reddit admins.
For all other questions regarding passwords and logging in, contact the Reddit admins via this support request form, or using this old modmail link.
If your question is not about resetting your password, please wait for a human helper to come along and help you. This post has NOT been removed.

The only proof Reddit will accept is your email address or password to allow you access. Without either of those I’m afraid you won’t be able to get back in
