What does HackerNews think of czkawka?

I used to use DupeGuru which has some photo-specific dupe detection where you can fuzzy match image dupes based on content: https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/

But I switched over to czkawka, which has a better interface for comparing files, and seems to be a bit faster: https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka

Unfortunately, neither of these are integrated into Photoprism, so you still have to do some file management outside the database before importing.

I also haven't used Photoprism extensively yet (I think it's running on one of my boxes, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up), but I did find that it wasn't really built for file-based libraries. It's a little more heavyweight, but my research shows that Nextcloud Memories might be a better choice for me (it's not the first-party Nextcloud photos app, but another one put together by the community): https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/memories

I used successfully https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka to remove duplicate and also https://www.scootersoftware.com/ to merge pictures folders

There are many programs out there that will find duplicates files. I use this one. It gives you the option of replacing the duplicates with either hard or symbolic links.

I think this one[0] can do most of that.

Perhaps [qarmin/czkawka: Multi functional app to find duplicates, empty folders, similar images etc.](https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka) and it's alternatives mentioned in the readme?

Czkawka worked pretty well for me.

I've been using 'czkawka' since it's earliest inception. Seems to do a similar tast using file hashes but can also search through to match Pictures and the like. https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka

RESF checking in

The first one i found and still use when it got obvious that fslint is EOL is czkawka [0] (meaning hiccup in polish). Its' speed is an order of magnitude higher than fslint, memory use is 20%-75%.

<;)> Satisfied customer, would buy it again. ;)>
