For .tgz files (compressed tar archives), you’ll need to decompress all the files into a single folder before importing. Then use the command immich-go upload from-google-photos /path/to/your/files.

That wasn’t an option for zip files.
Looks like for tarballs, I can select 50GB chunks. However, immich-go’s best practices say to pick zip.
Choose the ZIP format when creating your takeout for easier import.

What difference does it make to immich-go if I pick zip vs tar?

Ah, maybe the max was 20GB for zip. I'd just do the max available for zip.

Unless they’ve changed it in the last month then it’s 50 GB for zip.
