Some of the most interesting books were especially challenging. One in old German that was missing a couple of pages. It was a popular fairytale so I found the missing content online and a closely matching font, and reconstructed the pages. Another was in an Asian script I not only couldn't read, I didn't know how to sort or even properly rotate some loose pages, so I had to ask the owner. In a few cases when bits of the cover were missing, I found photos online, and printed a patch. Fun times!

Much less niche, but I'm also really into acting: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=do5PicgU0Jw

I have to admit I'm quite surprised by how eerily similar this website feels to my book. The chapter structure, the sequencing of the concepts, the examples and diagrams, even the "why" section (mine https://gabrielgambetta.com/computer-graphics-from-scratch/0... - theirs https://lisyarus.github.io/blog/posts/implementing-a-tiny-cp...)

I don't know what to make of this. Maybe there's nothing to it. But I feel uneasy :(

About OP's tool, I also back up my Google account to an external disk periodically. Gmail is ~8 GB so it's manageable. But Google Photos is a pain. They recently removed most of the useful APIs, so AFAIK the only way to backup is via Takeout. It's terrible. Pictures in multiple albums are included as copies every time, so I had to make a script to find duplicates and replace them with symlinks. Just downloading the whole thing is a PITA (multiple 50 GB zip files). I get that Google has little incentive to make this better, in fact they might have an incentive to make it as inconvenient as possible, but I really wish they made it easier.
