alt Hacker NewsPSA: Getting out of Google Photos is both easy and super rewarding if you can run Immich and use Google Takeout. It’s also better than Google Photos.

I haven't found setting up Immich to be super easy. But I have a special setup at home (Windows Server with minikube). I've been wanting to try it for some time though.
Maybe I should rope some NAS for just the Immich setup.

Immich is fantastic.

Does Takeout work if you have say 1K or maybe 2K photos?

takeout rarely works. Usually fails partway through the export.

I tried Google Takeout but with 900GB of photos is almost impossible to download.
