So, as for actually constructive feedback: if you want a similar solution that does not piss off mods, change it so that a pinned post collapses after it is clicked on once
I like that suggestion!

This may seem good at first glance but is horrible for people wanting to come back later to the sticky. They may think post has been unstickied or removed if they don’t see the post again at the same place later.

I like this idea more than the "visit the sub twice" mechanic. Once the user acknowledges the contents of the post, it can be collapsed to not get in the way when they revisit the sub - mods are happy that the user at least seen the post, and users are happy not to be shoved in the same two weeks old post in their faces every time they visit the sub.
EDIT: Side note, it'd be cool to have at least one more sticky spot. If all of those stickies taking space is really a problem, they can be put under a common place that'll pre-display a snippet from the latest / last updated sticked post, and all of them once the user taps it. Stickies having a "last read" timestamp per user and checking when said timestamp is greater than the post creation / edition timestamp, to determine whether or not a sticky could be collapsed / stop being displayed, would be more than enough here.
