Filed an issue to remove googlephotos from rclone since removeing the library.readonly scope will completely break that. https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/8434

What a terrible decision by Google.

Takeout could also be an option
That's what I use to export photos. It's bad in almost every way, except for the fact that it works.
