If so, try some of the suggestions on this troubleshooting list:

It should work with any site or platform that links back to your Mastodon account using the "rel=me" standard. In theory this was supposed to be everywhere, but Facebook, Google etc refused to play ball so for the moment it's just on sites that adhere to the standard like Mastodon etc.
I had a look round Pixelfed's Github and you've done everything correctly, I'm not sure why it isn't working on your profile

yes... I don't have the budget right now to rent a VPS at the moment so I'm stuck with my registrar's (weebly) or payhip's CMS
Hey, someone else had problems and removing the link from their profile, saving, then adding the link back and saving again worked. Might be worth a try?
(I've just added this to the troubleshooting list because it worked for them.)
