The Google issues: the Takeout data screwed me over at some many points. Eg. Calendar exports didn’t contain the birthday calendar (because it’s data extracted from Contacts somehow and not an actual iCal?) but manually exporting the missing ones worked fine for some reason. Google Photos had messed up datetime data on a dozen pictures but turns out they were duplicates anyway. Shared albums were not included (which may make sense) but it didn’t mention that wasn’t included, etc…
