If you are only willing to drop exact duplicates, why not just take a file hash of everything as your starting point? Delete all but one of the collisions.

- Alifatisk 2y agoDupeGuru has been pretty effective solution for this. I don’t know if creating a hash for every file and then checking for collision is any better way? Sounds like it requires more labor.
