Is there a way to associate an existing #pixelfed feed with a Mastodon account? I got @krapp@pixelfed.social before the Mastodon login existed and I don't want to have to make another account.
I mean, yeah. After around the mentioned 14 photos, I've added a link to my #LinkStack profile and a bio, but this sounded like modern-day internet wisdom. But since it was an easy thing to test, I removed the URL and the bio (which was also not spammy), deleted my unlisted photos, and tried again.
I've posted the exact same photos, with the exact same text and alt text in the exact same order (in a pretty rapid succession!), and none of them got unlisted. I … eh … whut?

I thought I must be doing something wrong. Posting the images too quickly, perhaps. So I deleted my unlisted photos and tried posting only one photo per day. Same result.
Searching for what could be going on here didn't help much. Mainly general information about #Pixelfed's spam detection. Oh, and a three-year-old (!) Reddit post*, where someone claimed that the constant unlisting happens when both the URL and bio are set.

#Pixelfed, whut!?!
A while ago, I created a Pixelfed account for my #35mm #filmPhotography. I've uploaded a couple of (travel) photos, with a bit of text, some hashtags, and alt text – nothing special.
Then, suddenly (after 14 photos, to be specific), all newly uploaded photos automatically got unlisted with an autospam warning. Neither the photos, the texts, nor the alt texts were in any way spammy.
