It is crazy to see how difficult google makes it for anyone to download their own pictures from google photos. Rclone used to allow you to download them, but not anymore. Only the ones uploaded by Rclone are available to download. I wish someone forced all cloud providers to allow you to download your own data. And no, google takout doesn't count. It is horrible to use.

Not just bad to use, but doesn't fully work. I've been trying to get my photos off Google Photos to backup elsewhere, but takeout misses something like 20%-30% of them.

How did you verify that takeout shorted you on 20-30% which is a huge number? This worries me as I've done some takeouts but never fully poked through them.

yes, that is what I meant. Once I tried to download 600GB of photos, and it crashed.
