Community Rules
Follow the Code of Conduct
All posts on pop_os must adhere to the Pop!_OS community Code of Conduct. https://github.com/pop-os/code-of-conduct
Be helpful
Posts to pop_os must be helpful. When responding to a user asking for help, do not provide tongue-in-cheek responses like "RTM" or links to LMGTFY. Linking to direct sources that answer the asker's question is fine, but it's advised to provide some explanation as to how you got to that source.
Critique should be constructive
We within the Pop!_OS community welcome helpful criticism or ideas on ways to improve. However, basic "It's bad" or other simple negative comments don't help anyone fix anything. When voicing a complaint about something, try to point out ways the complaint could be improved or worked around, so that we can make a better product for it.
This rule applies to both Pop!_OS and its projects as well as other products available from third-parties.
Don't post malicious "advice"
It can be funny to joke about malicious commands, however this is not the venue for it. Do not advise users to run commands which will lock up their systems, steal their data, or erase their drive. Examples of this include (but are not limited to) fork bombs, rm, etc.
Posts violating this rule will be removed, even if the post is clearly in jest. Repeated offences may lead to a ban. You may understand that the command isn't serious, but a new user might not.
No personal attacks
Posts making a personal attack on any user will not be tolerated.
No hate speech
Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated. Any violations will be removed, and are grounds for a ban.

MODERATORS
Short answer, it's traffic.
If you want an imperfect and unofficial guestimate, here goes:
Lemmy.world has 2.48K users / day
According to Statistica "in April 2023 approximately 1.7 billion visits", so dividing 1,700,000,000/30 = 56,666,666.6667 as an average per day.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/443332/reddit-monthly-visitors/
Yes, there's probably days with higher traffic (likely weekends), but this gives us an idea of visits.
56,666,666/2,840 = 19,953.0514085
So every single post here would be nearly 20K posts to Reddit, because Reddit has about 20K times more visits in a day using that one month as a baseline. It's probably not perfectly accurate, but it's a number to work with.
I visited https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/ and saw 15 posts from today. I'll use that as an unofficial average.
19953.0514085 / 15 = 1,330.20342723 (number of days)
1330.20342723 / 365 = 3.64439295132 (number of years)
If you get 1 post every 3 and half years, you're keeping up with Reddit.

I just saw the mascot redesign and wow. Just wow. Not in a good wow way.
