Show HN: Sift – 10-12 HN discussions daily, ranked by practitioner depth

[vnykmshr]

sift scores HN threads by the quality of their discussion, not vote count. It looks for depth (comments at 3+ levels), practitioner markers (experience phrases, code blocks, specific tool names), author diversity, and reference density. Threads that are mostly flames or pile-ons get filtered out.

Updated 4x/day. Shows 6 above the fold, rest behind a tap. Yesterday's picks are gone — no archive, no backlog.

The entire thing is a static page. Astro build, self-hosted fonts, no JS bundles, no tracking. Runs on Cloudflare Pages free tier.
