Why is there #Mastodon and #Pixelfed?

On pixelfed there's only images but you can filter mastodon for images. Why would I make two profiles and when do I post which image to which platform?

Why they exist?

Because someone had enough motivation to create them.

Why do you need to use them?

You don't.

You are in control how the platforms are used. If mastodon can meet all your social media needs then stick to that.
