Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

The first time I tried it in the two gigabyte blocks. The problem with that is I have to download them one or two at a time. It's not very easy to do over the course of a week on a normal internet connection. Keep in mind, I also have a job.
I got about 50 out of 60 files before the one week timer reset and I had to start all over.
You could look into using a download manager. No reason for you to manually start each download in sequence if there's a way to get your computer to automatically start the next as soon as one finishes.
Any recommendations? Windows or Linux?
Definitely recommend Motrix:

If the Google download link supports it, it should be fairly resistant to interruptions. If it doesn't, this might not help much, but you should still use this instead of just a browser.
I haven't tried to download a Google takeout, so you might need to get clever with how you add the download link to it.
If you just can't get it to work, you can try getting the browser extension to automatically send all downloads to Motrix. There is some setup required, though:

Good luck!
