I'm not uninterested, I've made some half-hearted attempts to get on other services with my Mastodon account, and couldn't quite figure out how. What I've read implied that I wouldn't need a separate account for each service, and I really don't want to create yet another account. (I didn't try Pixelfed, however; I was more interested in some others.)
@EverydayMoggie @pixelfed Yes, you will need a separate account for each service.
You can’t sign up for Pixelfed using your Mastodon account. Usually, you sign up using your email.
