this? https://github.com/boredazfcuk/docker-icloudpd

seems pretty high touch. A lot of hoop-jumping if you don't have a mac in the middle

Thanks. I had no idea something like that existed.

How do we know using such a tool won’t trigger an account lockout? How ironic would that be.

No idea if it’ll trigger a lockout, but if it does at least I have a copy of my photos already.

Been running it for a couple years without issue. But yes your milage may vary.

Yeah that’s the one.

I do have a Mac so it didn’t seem difficult to me, but I accept it will be for those that don’t.
