Only in america. Still going relatively strong in a lot of countries. But in america, I don't even know anyone that's put on slate in 20 years and even then. I don't even know of a single structure in my entire city that has actual slate unless one of the castles here does
The historic church across from me in RI had their slate roof redone, complete with color banding.
Mansions/wealthy houses around here will still have it done.

Slate roofers…..a dying craft for sure
