Possible to remove me from a swap?

I tried to join swap https://lightningnetwork.plus/swaps/1649 . However, a user with whom I am already in a triangle ( https://lightningnetwork.plus/swaps/1646 ) joined after me. It doesn't make sense for me to open the same type of channel twice to the same user. Is it possible to remove me from this triangle so that someone else can join in my place?

The person who joined after you should've seen the warning not to join, but it's possible you were joining in two swaps at the same time, so there was no channel to you yet which would've triggered the warning.

If you're about to open two channels to the same node, just open one with the sum of both channels instead.

You can remove yourself from a swap for a certain amount of time at the beginning, but after people join after you, you can't do it yourself. However, you can ask the admin over chat or in email: support@lightningnetwork.plus and we will find a solution depending on the situation. Just let the other participants know in the comments that you're waiting for my action on the issue.
