Those of us who used to use Matrix, stopped using it, perhaps deactivated their accounts, then want to use it again, perhaps with the same username, then don't bang your head at the desk in frustration when the "computer says no!" Here is response I have received from the Matrix support team after learning to get in touch with them about the issue [1] """ Hi Mateusz Unfortunately it is impossible to verify the identity of deleted users. Per the matrix.org Privacy Notice ( https://matrix.org/legal/privacy-notice#2211-account-and-profile-information ): "Your username is stored indefinitely to avoid account recycling." To protect the security and privacy of our users we never reactivate or release deleted usernames. We recommend you create a new account using a different Matrix ID.
