Hi there! So I understand that federated systems can speak to one another and interact. My question I guess is should I be using my Mastodon account to log into PieFed, and PixelFed, and Bookwyrm? Or do I need to create specific accounts for all these services, just as I did before?
I understand that someone on Mastodon could potentially follow my PixelFed account and see my posts. But wouldn’t it make sense to have one single identity (if one wished) so it collected all of my stuff in one place? Just wondering if I am missing the point?
Sorry if I sound like an idiot here. I really love the idea of federated services, just want to make sure I am “doing it right” so to speak.
I am also kinda new, but it seems like it leans towards multiple accounts. Some lemmy instances don’t federate, so I have two.
And then it seems like there is a alot of style and content overlapp between pixelfed and mastadon. So I just have a pixelfed account and follow a few folks from Mastond there.
It would be weird to see pixel fed type posts on my lemmy feeds, but I guess that is just how am using it so far
