CLUSTER PHOTOS-GOOGLE-TAKEOUT · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-10-09
Google Takeout cleanup utilities
This cluster consists of desktop tools that clean and organize Google Photos Takeout export archives by fixing metadata, file structure, and duplicates. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from — it predates the index or its members are undated. On traction, Argos-Cleaner leads with 1 star, while archivebridge and GoogleTakeoutFixer have 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
