Intelligently wait until previous deletion has completed

Open recursionbane opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Thank you for this tool! I am here to suggest an improvement.

The current iteration with timers between deletion cycles is somewhat clunky, and does not take machine performance and network latency into account.

Recommended change is to wait until the "Moving X images" prompt disappears from the DOM before attempting the next deletion cycle.

I made some other changes like removing the limit of retries in this fork: https://github.com/recursionbane/google-photos-delete-tool

Sounds amazing. Can you make a PR back into the project with this change?
