I’ve been running Immich for about 6 months now, and it’s smooth and stable.
I’ve synced my camera roll to it and loving it.
Next step is to move the ~150gb of media on Google-Photos over.
How do I best do that?
I also have some other issues I’d like to address before or after the migration:
- I have a bunch of crap mixed into my Google photos, old WhatsApp images from meme groups I used to be in etc.
- Thousands of photos of Ex girlfriends mixed in (not exactly sure what to do about these)
Is there a way to siff through these efficiently and keep what I want? I have ~20k photos some dating back to 2006 so it feels like a mountain to climb.
I didn’t see it mentioned here, but rclone has a Google Photos backend, that will allow you to pull everything.
This finally opened a crack on the door of my technical debt and vendor lock-in with Google. Thank you! 😊
Yeah it’s great, we’re looking at doing the same both at work and at home.
Holy shit this is huge. Like… Massive for me
Looks like it can’t pull original quality? I might be misreading.
Damn, wish I had known about that before I went the takeout method
