I am migrating to Nextcloud memories and move away from Google photos however my previous phones and family are linked to the Google account is there a way to compare all the photos on my local gallery to my Google photos to make sure I have downloaded all the photos from there I don’t have time to download everything from Google photos and delete duplicates

    Just be aware that, unless they’ve changed this since I last looked, when you do this it strips out all of the metadata and provides it all in a single file which you would then have to find software to write it back on to every photo (if you want the metadata that is).

      Those googly-eyed SOBs! You’re right. I’m planning to migrate my photos to Ente whose upload tool fixes this, I think. But Nextcloud probably will not.
