Changing Accounts
While you can change your "display name" in Matrix, because of low-level design decisions in the Matrix protocol, accounts cannot be renamed nor can accounts names be re-used, and deactivating them is permanent. For most Matrix users this is not an issue, but accounts tied to SSO such as Mozilla's cannot be reassigned to new owners. Changing the address associated with an SSO-bound Matrix account cannot be done, so you'll need to create a new account for yourself and deactivate the old one if that's what intend.
 
In order to maintain continuity in conversations, you will need to export your encryption keys from the old account and import them into the new account. The options to do this are under your account settings, in Security And Privacy, under Cryptography near the bottom of that window.
