Hey, I'd like to ask a question about the system surrounding edits needing approval. Has it always been this way and is there any way that I can edit without approval needed (like permissions)?

It's a new system that was put in place to prevent site-wide vandalism.
Just edit pages as usual and a moderator will approve your edits. As long as you're not being malicious (i.e. trying to delete pages, insert spam, etc), a moderator will approve your edits - the system isn't there to gatekeep anyone, it's genuinely just in place to stop vandalism.
Longstanding users can be added to the automoderated group, but there is no specific criteria to have your permissions bumped up outside of a loose 'make good and meaningful contributions'.
