By "sludge content" are you referring to mis/disinformation, or empty content?
IMO, TikTok is fast approaching FB content curation/data quality issues (which proved quite costly for FB).
Oftentimes, effective "sludge" reduction requires sufficient user feedback (thumbs down/report/comments) and algorithmic learning. Contested concepts and "pleasure posts" can make threshold tuning a bit tricky (e.g., how empty is too empty; how misinformed is too misinformed), as imperfection encourages discourse/engagement.
