User Reviews

Users largely praise Tumblr Savior for effectively hiding or filtering posts and improving their Tumblr experience, thanks to its many customizable settings. However, multiple reviews report serious reliability and maintenance concerns: updates frequently reset or purge blocklists and change settings without consent, the extension may stop working or clash with new Tumblr changes, and some UI elements (settings access, URLs/icons) behave oddly. Overall, it’s valuable when functioning, but ongoing regressions and compatibility issues make it unreliable without consistent development and bug fixes.

Pros

Very effective at hiding or filtering posts, reducing unwanted content on Tumblr.
Improves the browsing experience by keeping your dash safer and more manageable.
Rich settings and options let you customize what to filter and hide.
Has been a dependable tool for years when it’s functioning properly.

Cons

Update regressions wipe blocklists and reset settings, causing frustration.
Some updates break core functionality or compatibility with Tumblr (e.g., not hiding sponsored/recommended posts anymore).
UI/UX and accessibility issues: settings can be tricky to access; post UI may lose URLs/icons or behave oddly.
Occasional outright failures where the extension stops working or behaves unpredictably.

Been using this add-on for years, it's good at what it does, but I've hit a weird bug lately. Instead of showing the usual "this post contains filtered content" type popup when a post is getting filtered, it just flat out removes the post from the dashboard. I don't know why it's doing this.

Accessing settings for this extension was a little trickier than I have normally seen, but works as I expected otherwise.

Is Tumblr Savior Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Tumblr Savior requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
