Any recommendations for cleaning and organizing an image folder? I have a large amount of images over the past 10 years that are really messy and have been backed up and restored multiple times. I think I have a lot of duplicates in this folder but it’s thousands and thousands of files… is there any easy way to remove the duplicates? And how do you guys organize your Image folders? Thanks for any input!

      Ive used Clonespy but I’m so scared of false positives that I started using Renamer (den4b) and using a hash/date file name for sorting. It doesn’t really help with resized, corrupted, modified (exif), or anything like that. Will watch this just to see if anything else gets brought up.

      How did you set this up? Shared folder, Linux filesystem, container, something else?

    Duplicate cleaner by digital volcano there is also visual similarly Duplicate image finder by mind gens which is useful for images that look exactly the same but are different file formats.
