Show HN: Priviblur – A privacy-focused front end to Tumblr (github.com/syeopite)

Hello HN!

Priviblur is an alternative frontend to access Tumblr, similar to projects like Invidious or Nitter.

You can use it to avoid tracking, or even just to avoid Tumblr's new login wall. The former was the goal but the latter was what really pushed me to actually begin development.

Its the newest project in the recentish movement of creating frontends to various proprietary websites. The main "new" thing that this brings is that a modern UI/UX is a central goal of the project along with of course privacy. Though I don't think the UI quite reaches the former goal yet, but it will be eventually.

Pretty much everything you'd expect from a Tumblr frontend is already there. Blogs, photosets, etc. I'm still working on stuff like video and audio post support though.

Please let me know what you think!
