In December of last year, Tumblr confirmed a series of high-profile changes to its terms of use, prompting a significant number of users to leave and a massive disappearance of content. If you see something you like on the platform, the recommendation is to back it up immediately because it could vanish without warning. But what happens when it's a video? Don't worry: Downloading Tumblr videos is simple and requires no extra software.
The news was reported exhaustively by specialized media: last December, all adult content became prohibited on Tumblr. Users reacted with fury, disappointment, frustration, and memes, without losing sight of the possibility of its disappearance. Technically, Tumblr is still there, with more than 450 million microblogs, but it feels like cracked glass. Nothing prevents its managers from expanding the list of prohibited content and starting a second purge, so if you see something nice or interesting, back it up. When it comes to videos, the process is much easier than you imagine. Let's see:
How to download Tumblr videos with Chrome
Under this method, all you need is to discover the video's URL, and to do that, nothing beats the inspector built into Google Chrome. Right-click on some part of the page, select Inspect from the context menu (Ctrl+Shift+I if you prefer the keyboard), press Ctrl+F to open the search box, and type mp4. Copy the address, paste it into a new tab (this will open only the video), and download the mp4 using the right button. That's all!
How to download Tumblr videos with TubeOffline
TubeOffline is one of many sites that offer an online mechanism to download videos, and it turns out Tumblr is on its compatibility list. Paste the URL of the post containing the video, choose quality and format (personally, I'd leave it as MP4), and once processing is finished, download the video by right-clicking the Download icon (Save Link As). If the manual method bothers you or you can't access the inspector, this is a good shortcut.
