I made myself a “Mastodon” account a while back (@dtw). Since then I’ve ActivityPub enabled my website (@rubyquartglassess@rubyquartzglasses.me.uk) (yeah, I need to shorten that).

Now, I want to start using . I can create “Pixelfed” account from scratch, or by “authenticating” with one of my existing accounts, right? However, I think, anyone can follow my @dtw or @rubyquartglassess@rubyquartzglasses.me.uk feed from pixelfed anyway… so, I don’t need an account on a pixelfed server?

And then I wonder, if any fedi app can read any ActivityPub feed, why are there different apps?
