Okay, heeeeelp, how the fuck am I supposed to upload almost 230k photos from iCloud Photos to my NAS?

This is what I used to run icloudpd, if anyone needs it. If using --xmp-sidecar you’ll also need to use a patched version of the program: https://github.com/icloud-photos-downloader/icloud_photos_downloader/pull/1290

icloudd(){icloudpd --size original --live-photo-size original --xmp-sidecar --set-exif-datetime --live-photo-mov-filename-policy original --align-raw original  --file-match-policy name-id7 --password-provider console --mfa-provider console --notification-script /root/ntfy-icloudpd-2fa.sh --directory /mnt/pool1/PersonalFiles/Media/iCloud-dl  --library PrimarySync -u 'email@example.com' || icloudd}; icloudd

Run with --list-libraries so you can see all your libraries other than PrimarySync, you’ll have a second one if you have a shared iCloud library. Run that command one (or as many times as needed to completely succeed) time for each library.

Hmmm ok, already don’t like one thing about Nextcloud: icloud-photos-downloder is able to save screenshots with a “Screenshot” tag on the used lenses. Nextcloud doesn’t do this, which honestly will make filtering(out) screenshots on Immich a pain in the ass

Edit: oh and apparently it saves them without timezone data

And when a file errors it says it’ll try again but doesn’t and then doesn’t ever send anything else unless you clear cache. Ugh this’ll suck…
