elehack on Show HN: Sieve - filter webpages and watch changes

Cool concept, but name collision: Sieve has been the name of a server-side mail filtering language for quite some time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_%28mail_filtering_langua...

This is exactly where my thoughts went when seeing the name, as well as the title on this submission.

Glad that you liked the concept. Wasn't aware of the unfortunate name collision. I am open to suggestions. Thanks!

Liked this suggestion. Unfortunately the domain names getsiv.com and sivapp.com are taken.

Edit: siv.io could be nice.

if sifter is out, then something like sift could be winnow or winnower. might be a bit obscure for non-agrarians, but it has 'win' in it!

Herodotus or shorten it to Herodo

GetHerodotus.com and GetHerodo.com are both open

DiffWeb?

Detect? (amusingly not taken within tech, seemingly)

well, a sieve sifts, how about sifter?

Thanks. I like sifter. Going to check if it is available.

Probably want to avoid that as well - https://sifterapp.com - #1 Google result for sifter...

strainer?
