select 50GB chunks

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?

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.

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.
