About Priviblur
Priviblur is an alternative front end to Tumblr, inspired by projects such as Invidious. It works as a proxy: the server makes requests to Tumblr on your behalf and presents the content in its own modern design, so your browser does not load Tumblr directly.
It is written in Python and can be deployed with Docker Compose using an example configuration file. The repository also keeps a list of public instances for people who do not want to run their own, and the interface is translated into several languages.
