<div>So, if the images are Public Domain outside of/prior to uploading to Pixabay, then they remain Public Domain. But if the images are only CC0 because of the act of uploading to Pixabay, then they would be under the *actual* terms of the site. And those *actual* terms impose non-GPL-compatible restrictions.</div>
