Would using PixelFed to showcase my photography run the risk of segmenting followers?

For example, I have @david, which I plan to start ramping up. I'd like to post items such as stories and announcements here, and of course photographs.

But PixelFed is better for the photographs. If I create an account there for just the photographs, it seems that would split the followers? Wouldn't some follow only the photo account, missing the stories?

@fringe @pixelfed @david Not really. You can always boost your Pixelfed posts from your Mastodon account.

Thank you! So my process would be to post the photography in the PixelFed account, then immediately boost it from the "main" account. I get that!

What about the folks who find the PixelFed account? How would they know about the other one?

@fringe @pixelfed Yes, they would, and they could follow.

Now that I've told you this, go try @pixelfed!
