Has anybody successfully migrated photos in bulk from Flickr into Immich?
Hello Immich Community,
I'm a complete noob to Immich here. Just managed to get it setup on my NAS on Docker. Firstly, a big thanks to all the developers and contributors for making such an awesome application.
I'm trying to get off Flickr after hosting my photos there for the past 15 years. I've requested for my Flickr data and downloaded all the photos and JSON files for the metadata.
I'm aware immich-go exists for migrating from Google Photos. Does a similar tool exist for migrating from Flickr? Or has anybody managed to migrate from Flickr to Immich which preserving albums, tags/keywords, dates, etc?
Thanks in advance for any guidance, ideas or suggestions on how I could get this done.

I wrote this tool. Please take a look... https://github.com/brownphotographic/Flickr-Emmigration-Tool
