I’m having issues with Google takeout, it messes up the file names and thus the order of the photos. Any tips?

This video and an LLM proved to be very helpful. Here’s the commands I ended up using: Testing Upload Process Before performing the actual upload, test the process with this command: immich-go.exe -server http://[server.ip:port} -key [put your apikey here w/o brackets} upload -dry-run -google-photos takout-*.zip Actual Upload Once testing is successful, perform the full upload: immich-go.exe -server http://[server.ip:port} -key [put your apikey here w/o brackets} upload -google-photos takout-*.zip Remove Duplicates If you’ve previously uploaded photos before syncing your phone, remove duplicates with: immich-go.exe -server http://[server.ip:port} -key [apikey} duplicate -yes
