The first one is the "real" one, using it with the same username here in the forum as well (elzach). The other one is just the email address I registered less than a year ago on the browser settings itself.

All my activity and add on reviews are under the first one. Problem is, I can't log in, it seems Firefox is permitting only the second account, registered as "accounts", which it uses for sync purposes. This is a very recent development it seems.

Any thoughts?

I meant to say, I can't log in using my first account (elzach) on either page. I can log in normally with my second account, which gives me the grand "anonymous..." username.

So there was no migration in my case. The old login has been disabled. I think better notification would have been appropriate.
