Why is there #Mastodon and #Pixelfed?

On pixelfed there’s only images but you can filter mastodon for images. Why would I make two profiles and when do I post which image to which platform?

        It might have a bit to do with people being tired of mainstream social media sites trying to be everything and clone each other. Snapchat was a neat novelty to me initially but they tried to do too much and lost my interest. They may want to focus on doing one things exceptionally well

      I’m on a Mastodon instance with a 2,000 character limit for a reason: microblogging is only good for shitposting.
