Is there any difference in the goals of the communities !pixelfed@lemmy.ml and !frompixelfed@sopuli.xyz? Is it that !frompixelfed@sopuli.xyz is focused purely on finding creators instead of general Pixelfed-related discussion as in !pixelfed@lemmy.ml?

That’s correct, it is meant to complement the pixelfed community on lemmy, rather than cannibalise it. The main pixelfed community discusses the site and application (as far as I am aware), while this is about promoting the users of pixelfed / posting pretty pics on the local feed. You will find links to related communities e.g lemmy.ml/c/pixelfed in the sidebar.

The secondary goal is to seperate tech / foss content on lemmy with generalist content on sopuli, with the aim of attempting to provide content for new users from join-lemmy. If this is bad news I’m sure I’ll hear about it :D

That sounds nice. Yeah, I agree with how you see the community goals.

Thinking about it now, I might not be the only one without a clear understanding of which topics should I post to which community. If I were you, I would probably even explain the difference in the community sidebar where the link to !pixelfed@lemmy.ml community is with something like:

General Pixelfed discussion community: [!pixelfed@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/c/pixelfed) 

If this is bad news I’m sure I’ll hear about it :D

I do not understand what do you mean. What could be (possibly) bad news and why? I can see nothing wrong about this. Just curious why would you think it could be bad news in some way.

Good idea - have updated and I also think the mod of lemmy pixelfed should add the pixelfed icon to their channel while I make this one less official.

Re: bad news nothing major just the unknown of whether it’s the right approach.

I agree. And I got you with the meaning of bad news. I would say it is the right approach. Cannot talk for others, though. Thank you for extending the fediverse.
