The Sieve

On Reddit

Your feed, minus the noise

Sifty works inside the page you already use. Each post gets a small tag that says what Sifty decided. Posts that don’t fit your mindset collapse into a one-line bar, and you can always open them.

  • Tags, not guesses. A post Sifty isn’t sure about stays visible and says so: “AI?”
  • Nothing disappears silently. Collapsed posts say why, and “Show” brings them back.
  • The post you opened is never hidden.

Questions

Which Reddit does Sifty work on?

New Reddit, at www.reddit.com. Old Reddit (old.reddit.com) and comment threads aren’t filtered yet.

Why do I need to sign in?

Reading posts costs Sifty real money, so each account gets a daily limit. Signing in with Google is how Sifty keeps that fair. It only asks Google for your name, email and profile picture.

Is there a limit?

Each account can have up to 1,000 new posts a day read. Posts Sifty has already read for anyone are free and don’t count. If you reach the limit, new posts show unfiltered until it resets.

What happens to posts Sifty hides?

Depending on the mindset, they collapse into a one-line bar that says why, or they dim until you hover. You can open any of them, and you can switch to “Label only” to hide nothing at all.

What if Sifty gets a post wrong?

When Sifty isn’t sure, it leaves the post visible and marks the tag with a “?”. If it can’t read a post at all, the post stays visible with a “Sifty ⚠” tag.

Keep the posts you came for.
