The past few weeks it won't work repeatedly, I don't understand

Also a trick to download which avoids using wifi is to rent a tiny VPS. Then do takeout -> email link (not google drive). When you go to download it, open chrome devtools -> networks tab. Click "download" and find the networks row which is for that download (is preceded by a 301 redirect). Right click -> "Copy as cURL" and then can copy into that VPS

It's a way of spoofing the connection with cookies and everything so you download over the fast VPS connection. Then can use `rclone sync` or whatever to copy to a backup place

oh my bad, this is pretty similar. But you don't need an extension on firfox or chrome, just inspecting the networks tab. I can find my notes if other are interested to find the exact URL, but I think it was a gstorageapi url. If you clear the log right before you press download, there aren't that many network requests
