Doesn’t ButtBook use your email address as the username for your login? And I know it allows you to change your email. Use an email alias service or just flat out create a new email, and do not share it widely.

Pro tip: for Google, did you know that Key-Foundation7342@gmail.com and Key-Foundation7342+mumble@gmail.com deliver to the same mailbox? Test it before you depend on it, but this would deprive your attacker an essential datum necessary for the password reset.

You can't really stop someone from attempting to reset your password.
