Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
Sadly, it’s not configurable. It’s just an inherent limitation of the API (1). Takeout is the best alternative, but for something more realtime you can use tools (2) that wrap the browser UI which also exports full quality.

Immich - Self-hosted photos and videos backup solution from your mobile phone (AKA Google Photos replacement you have been waiting for!) - March late update - now with CLIP-enabled search mechanism.
I haven't tried immich yet, but I am using https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync with great success. I wonder how hard it would be to set up a workflow to get the synced photos into immich.

Amazon Photos just ate 240,364 of my photos
I pull mine from Google Photos, with a docker image running a tool: https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync
Its not perfect, but as a backup, it works well.

My brother's iCloud account was stolen
Exactly this. I have Google photos and I use it all the time, for everyone. But I also back up everything I can using the [gphotos-sync](https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync) python script. As it says, it's not the 100% quality in either photo or video, but it's still the memories.
Please if you aren't backing up your cloud storage photos/important files, stop reading HN and go and set it up now.
I can recommend backblaze for cheap reliable storage and the restic backup client which is brilliant (a single, small binary). There's also rclone, or even the backblaze cli client. [Sorry I sound like a Backblaze shill!]

Users reporting artifacts appearing in old images stored in Google Photos
I used this not too long ago: https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync
It works extremely well, and you can re-run it any time to sync new files locally too.
I used it like that for a few months before I finally installed syncthing on my phone and stopped using Google Photos altogether.
Now what I do is take photos on my phone, have them sync to a NAS. And on the NAS I used a modified version of this https://forum.syncthing.net/t/android-photo-sync-with-exifto... to build up a YYYY/MM folder organisation and move files older than 30 days from the syncthing folder into my archive. My archive is then in my Plex so it's still accessible to me.
In essence: 1) Take photo (implicit sync to NAS), 2) wait 30 days, 3) archive photo into long term directory naming convention, whilst making available to Plex and deleting the version from my phone (by deleting the syncthing version it will delete the one on the phone after 30 days too).

Move all iCloud photos to NAS
Ah. I suggest opening a separate thread for that if you need peeps to share their experience. I took a quick look at Github and this repository seems popular: https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync

Ask HN: Google Photos Alternatives?
Technically there is no way for a lossless synchronization/export out of Google Photos apart from using Google Takeout to the best of my knowledge.
For reference check the best effort project https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync and the "Known Issues with Google API" section.

Most used selfhosted services in 2022?
LibrePhotos - Man, I *so* want a google photos replacement that gives me control over how my photos are organized. Photoprism and LibrePhotos are both almost there. Of the two, I chose LibrePhotos mainly because I like how the project is run, and because it doesn't rely on making humongous thumbnails of all your media (so therefore uses about 1/4 the space in its database).
