I also find this a bit annoying. When I put a lot of effort into a time-sensitive post I would like it to be visible immediately. My 2018 AI review took four days and multiple emails to get promoted to frontpage—approximately a third of the remaining 2018 giving season.
I realise there is some risk of hypocrisy here, as I help mod the facebook group and we can be slow at times approving posts. But unlike facebook, the forum has a karma system for spam suppression; it seems you could say that any user with >1000 karma or whatever could post directly to main. Moderators could always move it away if the submitter misclassified it.
