Blackberry removal hints (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I’m struggling with my yard, blackberry vines have pretty much taken over, does anyone have any tools they’ve found efficient at removing them? Looking for inspiration since search results are filled with such junk

I've found it easiest as a two step process, first removing all the vines using loppers (the kinda bolt cutter looking things), and then once that's all been trimmed close to the ground and all the vines discarded, then using a normal shovel to uproot them.
