Brings GIFs back to Tumblr blogs/dashboard instead of WEBPs
What is GifsOnTumblr?
The 'GifsOnTumblr' is a Chrome extension designed for users who prefer the use of GIFs over WebP on Tumblr. This extension seamlessly swaps the WebP format with GIFs on your dashboard, despite the possibility of your browser downloading both formats. However, the user is cautioned that pages rich with GIFs might experience a degree of slowness. For glitch art enthusiasts and creators, this solution brings back the beauty of GIFs on Tumblr.

Extension summary
Tumblr started (badly) converting GIFs to WebP, fucking up glitch art and making saving of GIFs even harder.
This extension tweaks the dashboard to serve GIFs instead of WebP. Unfortunately your browser might download both.
WARNING: pages with a lot of GIFs might be slow as a result. This is how GIFs are and I can't do anything about it.
