I am trying to follow my own Pixelfed account on Mastodon, but even though I search for, find, and follow my Pixelfed account, none of my Pixelfed posts appear in my Mastodon timeline. I am unsure if the problem lies with Pixelfed, Mastodon or both. Anyone else have a similar experience? I am @5teverin0@mastodon.social, and @5teverin0@pxlmo.com. Thanks.

I follow my own Pixelfed account on Mastodon and will often boost posts. I have a pixelfed.social account though. It's probably a federation issue on your specific Pixelfed instance. I've moved the Mastodon account a bunch and I've had problems on specific instances. I was never able to see my Pixelfed posts from fedia.social (ice shrimp), for example.

I was also able to search, follow, and see your Pixelfed posts from mastodon.social.

Edit: Your two newest photos from Aug 31st aren't actually showing up on m.s. and I can't see them on pixelfed.social either.

........why did you say "ice shrimp"?

Seemed like a cool thing to say in the moment. No good?

I said it was my Mastodon account but that server was running Firefish then a fork of Firefish called iceshrimp, neither of which are Mastodon. But it's now a Mastodon account again.
