I think it's worked well for what it aims to be. I've mostly used the official app (Android) but also tried out Fedilabs. My main complaint isn't really for the Pixelfed, but rather in Fediverse itself needing me to have a different account on each platform, rather than a Fediverse account I can use from all platforms. I know I can technically do a SAML login to Pixelfed with my Mastodon account, haven't tried it yet, but I assume it wouldn't work like truly using a common account. Like I imagine posts on Pixelfed aren't there linked as posts my Mastodon profile.
It just makes a new pixelfed.social handle if you do that
Yeah that's what I figured. I went a read the original blog post and when that said it even copies all your follows it was pretty clear it's not using a single unified account.
