backdown

helps you safely and ergonomically remove duplicate files

Description

Based on author's observation of frequent patterns of duplicate build-up with time, especially images and other media files, backdown asks some questions about the duplicates in a way the user can easily decide which to keep. The list is staged until the end for the user to confirm removal, or it can be optionally exported as JSON for further inspection. It also has the option to replace files to be removed with links pointing to the kept ones.
