Post Photos to Pixelfed Using Mastodon

When you sign up for a Pixelfed account on one of the instances, you will notice that a placeholder account for your Mastodon account will also be present.

To find your Mastodon Pixelfed account:

  • Log on to your Mastodon account
  • Search for your Pixelfed account
  • (Typing @username, then enter will display all with that username)
  • Select the @username@pixelfed.instance account
  • Follow it

From now on, everytime you post a photo on your Mastodon account, it will automatically be posted on your @username@mastodon.instance account

Many thanks to Ferdinando Simonetti (@rimmon1971@fosstodon.org) for sharing the info!
