How long has it been going? Took me about 5 mins to get their stupid app working to place a pixel. Contributed to the f spez.

Roughly for an hour, based on the post announcing it.

On mobile, they're forcing you to use their app, can't do it in a phone browser. So dumb. Clearly grabbing for dowmloads

I’m guessing that it’s been a popular engagement device in the past that they are using it to drive numbers of connected and participating members. Each pixel perhaps represents a post.

Not a bad idea but very short lived. And the outcome will be an f to spez lol. I’ll buy that t-shirt.
