Reblog to save a laptop Tumblr user’s life.
I am going to release this custom stylesheet so you guys can use it now. It removes a whole bunch of annoying things from Tumblr that sensible laptop users such as myself absolutely despise. One of them is the stickiness of the navbar, but it deals with one or two other problems too, which currently I don’t know how to explain because so much time has passed by since I wrote this code. I made it myself. I know it’s not perfect, but this code has spent the last twelve months making Tumblr’s design extremely way more tolerable for me. Without it I’d be suffering hard on this website.
Please note that this stylesheet’s removal of the navbar assumes that you use next/previous button page by page basis. The way it gets rid of the sticky header is going to cause bad synergy with your way of browsing Tumblr if you use “infinite scrolling”.
But it is fairly easy to edit the stickiness of the navbar back into the code if you do want that, if you’re willing to do a bit of brisk trial and error.
The issue is that Tumblr obfuscated its variable names by making them absolute gibberish. So you won’t find descriptive values in code like “main-navbar” or “annoying-piece-of-shit-recommendation-bastard” these days. You find absolutely counter-productive shit that’s designed to make your coding task hard. That’s why it has to be trial and error. I can’t remember which class is which.
This also assumes (for the time being) that you know how to use Internet browser plugins that mod the stylesheets of websites, such as Stylus. Personally I believe I can recommend Stylus. It definitely works in Firefox.
Code is below the break.
