I connected a social in Pixels on one account, kept using it, then later needed that same identity on a different Pixels account instead.
That is where the trap shows itself.
I cannot remove the connected social. The email tied to that Discord account cannot be connected to another Pixels account either. So the moment I try to move that identity over, the path is already closed from both sides.
The social stays on the old account. The email stays tied there too. And the account I actually need to keep using is the one that cannot take either of them.
That is the part that lands late. The original connect step looks tiny. It does not feel like I am choosing the one Pixels account that gets to keep that identity for good. But later, when account priorities change and I need that social on the account I actually want to keep, there is nothing to fix. The first attachment already decided it.
So the choice is ugly and simple. I keep using the old account because that is where the identity is stuck, or I move to the right account and leave the social behind on the one I no longer want.
