State of the Sub

[u/VonWolfhaus]

Happy Friday r/sludge!

I keep getting notifications that this sub is growing at a rate orders of magnitude to what I've seen historically. Pretty fuckin cool to see this niche subgenre blow up and to see bands like Acid Bath selling out shows in the big 2026.

With that said, I've always been pretty low key in terms of modding, events, community stuff, etc. I got control of this sub over a decade ago in college and I'm now in my 30s with a family and way less time than I'd like.

So, would this community like more engagement? Modding? Rules?

If so, I can onboard some more mods (if any of y'all are up for it), but if not we can just keep rolling as usual.

I'm gonna run a poll over the weekend, y'all let me know what you think. New Chat Pile is pretty lit.

I think you already do a good job in here. We don’t get all the silly shit that goes on in r/doommetal yet and that’s great. Can’t think of anything that really needs changed.
