It works fine on tumblrs that do not redirect if you try to go to name.tumblr.com but a seemingly high percentage of them redirect so its only occasionally useful. I still gave it 3 stars for how much it helps quickly looking at alot of pictures for the tumblrs it does work on.

excellent, hope it works for many years to come despite the dev seemingly abandoning it. also u need to open the blog in web view , "blog-name.tumblr.com" then click the button

Installed, reinstalled on Brave. Doesn't work. Even with other extensions disabled in normal mode and also when it is the only extension active in private mode, the icon shows it is active (colour) but clicking on it only shows the options and doesn't do anything. Boohoo.
