That sucks, I was reading my email in the morn and saw the news from haveibeenpwned.com, and I'm indeed effected by it.

Consolation is that I used a randomly generated unique password, tried to reset my credentials and see of any 2FA options but the site is overloaded throwing 504s.

I’ve been mentioning this a lot lately but it’s also a good idea to use email forwarding services like Firefox relay, icloud/apple “hide my email”, duckduckgo has a free one, simplelogin you can host yourself… In an email breach you can confirm who was breached if you used a unique email, and it also means your actual email remains at least as secure as those services I mentioned
