Wow. What an aggregator site.

I recommend a same site. It's https://tumbex.com - which serve you better even on blog that not available for public (sensitive or NSFW), except private: that's what gallery-dl for.

Hrxn commented 5 years ago

To be honest, I don't see the point. What constitutes a valid site support request here?

Both sites are just front-ends or, well, let's say explorer/viewer sites for Tumblr (which seems to be a zombie site by now, interestingly).

They don't host anything themselves, they just reference Tumblr. The former is quite a mess... well, you can search for a specific blog and then browse the content, but that's about it. The latter is much nicer. On top of a better search, links to posts and other blogs work properly, you can use the pagination, and the dates of posts are directly visible.

But how would gallery-dl come into play here, as long as the Tumblr API returns results and everything just works as before?

I mean those sites are necessary now for checking out any "restricted" blog, because the original Tumblr site doesn't show anything useful, you can confirm to see those specific blogs (some at least) when signed in, but even then, navigation and user experience is totally horrible.

But still, check out a Tumblr blog that may interest you, and then just use gallery-dl as before, or what am I missing here?

I'd vote for decline & close, just my two cents.

The horny-asian-ladies Tumblr blog from the first two tumblrgallery links doesn't exist anymore and can't be accessed with Tumblr's API, but their images are still available through direct links. The site allows access to deleted NSFW content on Tumblr and that's a good enough reason to support it, I think.

https://tumbex.com/ on the other hand is just a different front-end for Tumblr's current blogs and posts and doesn't provide access to stuff that gallery-dl couldn't get from an actual Tumblr link.

Ah, you're right. I tried it with some old blog that got removed, and tumbex.com only gave me an error.

But said blog does indeed work on tumblrgallery.com, seems like they keep a local copy of direct links to images and thumbs etc.

Not sure if this works for all deleted blogs, probably not, but it's at least something.

I assumed that site scrapped popular Tumblr blog: only its metadata within list of post as data bank.

What a cheap way to backing up and publish gallery (and gain some pennies). I did the same thought, it was the whole gallery.

Cann't agree more! It's really a big job ownnloading gallery pics and videos from those old and removed blog manually. AND, what's more important, even some of those videos or pics with "This content has been removed at the ..." still can be loaded if you click the "play".
