How I moved everything from Google Drive/Photos to Microsoft OneDrive

Amadex

I want to share my pain and a lot of Googling/Reddit but this was my path:

Google Drive to Microsoft OneDrive:
* There's a native MS app that can do that for you: https://mover.io/

Google Photos to Microsoft OneDrive:
* Get an RDP, I was using a cheap one from Balhost as they offer Windows for free: https://musteri.balhost.net.tr/index.php?rp=/store/sanal-sunucu
* Install OneDrive on RDP
* Download the Google Photos via Google Takeout, unzip it.
* Then sort all images to one big folder with exif data with this: https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper
* Upload all photos to OneDrive with app sync
* Then you can use this script to delete all photos from Google:

Thanks for the info!

I'm interested in the reasoning why you moved from Google Drive to OneDrive?

I've never really gotten along with OneDrive, it just feels clunky and slow to me. The Google Photos app is also just great, seems to create some nice memory collages from different locations to look back on.
