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.


no really, no. because what you want to keep is subjective. like @Cerothen@lemmy.ca said, which is what i did, you just dump and import. but any curating is a manual effort.
It would be great if there was kind of cleanup plugin for Immich.
Like Tinder for pics you want to keep or dump. I could spend 10min every day in the train to swipe left or right on pics I want to keep or remove.
Maybe you could use the immich face recognition to delete after import?
