Whats the best workflow for cleaning Ente photo library

I have a sizeable photo library - I know there are burry/out of focus and poor shots across my albums. They are all synced to Ente and a waste of space for all of us. I've been trying to use "on this day" to remove obviously bad images but it feels lsuboptimal

A) is there a feature to help me identify poor images?

B) If not, can there be? (feels like a win/win for customers and ente)

C) Assuming not, in the short term at least, what are you doing to to remove the dead wood?

(I've a mac/PC and Android with a family subs - if I'm using a third party tool I'd like to make sure I can sync back to Ente)

Ente Operating Structure

This is more of a clarification request about legal and operations than product question: I keep seeing people saying they don't trust Ente (the product) because the company is based in India. Clearly many problems with that, aside from misinformation, and I push back when I see it. But, it's hard to point people to an official source of information about it or even accurate posts on social media tbh.

Would you be open to having a page on your website for this or an official post pinned somewhere?
-Explaining the countries you operate in and the respective laws / how they impact your operations and users data.
-Describing in simple terms (for the non-technical minded) why your servers are where they are and how it doesn't matter if someone accesses them because: e2ee.
*You actually have a pretty good setup here: https://ente.com/architecture/ but it's not intuitive to find and while it can be followed by an amateur, it's long and 'a lot'. I was thinking an oversimplification like BW has in their FAQ: "3. Bitwarden does not store your passwords. Bitwarden stores encrypted versions of your passwords that only you can unlock. Your sensitive information is encrypted locally on your personal device before ever being sent to our cloud servers."

I appreciate the details on your site when I can find them but they are kind of buried and complicated when a lot of the time the answer could be in your 'about' page or something and what is needed is ELI5. "It's encrypted before it leaves your device, we can't see if it we want to, neither can anybody else. If someone tried to look at your photos on our servers they would just see gibberish." "By the way, while many of our employees are in India, we also have people in X, Y, and Z; our servers are in X, Y, and Z, and our company is based in the US. Here's what that means for any country compelling us to do anything either with warrants or changes in the law".

Shifting google photos to ente photos

I had quite a lot of private videos/pics in Google Photos — maybe 1000+ files. Because of this, Google restricted and fully disabled my account. Now if I upload photos and keep all my private pics/videos on Ente Photos, will it destroy my account the same way? How would Google even know what I'm keeping there? Maybe it's because Google doesn't use end-to-end encryption, that's why this happened. So I've shifted from Google Photos to Ente Photos — will this be safe, or will it get disabled too?"

Setting up Legacy Trusted Account

I'm attempting to set up the Ente trusted contacts, but I'm running into a problem where I'm to invite the person. At that point, all that's happening is looping and I cannot complete the process. Has anyone had success doing this?

Removing the '24 years ago', 'through the years' etc section?

I have scanned 3,000 or so family photographs from the 1960s to the 2000s.

I have added EXIF datetaken information to each photo.

However, with a good amount of the photographs, I only know the rough month, or even just the rough year.

In such cases, the EXIF datetaken has been set to, for example, 01/01/1986 (if the photo was circa 1986), 01/01/1998 (if the photo was circa 1998). This has been done to at least place them in some decent order when viewing in an app like Ente.

As you can imagine, though, it makes the top bar in Ente quite pointless, as only around 25% of the photographs have exact/known dates in their EXIF data.

Is it possible to, in a future update, have an option to hide the '21 years ago', 'through the years' etc bar?
