Not necessarily programming related, though I used programming to get myself out of this pickle.
Over the years I've created many Google Photos accounts for various trips and events (and to keep things free since 15GB is comes with the account). Now I wanted to consolidate everything into a single account. You would think it would be easy, but it's not. You can move photos from one account to another, but not painstakingly created albums and other customizations.
I've had to use a combination of Google Takeout and Google Photos API (which, in itself, is such a half-ass implementation) to move everything intact to a new account.

Getting the photos out is easy enough, but there's no easy UI to export the albums and smart albums and tags etc. Was doing quite a bit of AppleScript programming before I discovered https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos
