Comment on What is the Best way to migrate Google-Photos to Immich?

Does that properly keep metadata like location and other exit entries? I recall google takeout used to suck at that. I had to export using their web UI 1000 at a time or so back in the day to keep that info.

For the ones I imported it seems like the location data is still there

I was too lazy and immich-go may not have existed when I migrated but I just selected and downloaded my pictures from Google Photos then just uploaded them to Immich and they seemed to keep all their metadata.

  Right, the problem only happened on google checkout for me.

This so usually stored on the photos as exif data

  Right, sorry that’s what I meant to type which got corrected to “exit”. When I tried it it would be exported as a separate set of json files instead of being part of the images. Glad to hear that’s not the vase any longer or that this tool can automatically handle it.
