Formatting support in the Little Backup Box export tools has been improved. Telegram, Matrix, Mastodon, and Bluesky now receive cleaner and more consistent text output, including better handling of line breaks, basic emphasis, and links.

A small tool designed for field backup now doubles as a compact social-media publishing machine - straight from your camera, phone, or SSD to the world.

Part 2 of 5
I first plug in the SSD (target), then power on my Little Backup Box (LBB). After boot, I connect all cameras, phones, and card readers with memory cards via a USB hub. The automatic "any USB" → "USB" backup starts right away (as configured in web UI).

Part 3 of 5
My LBB first copies all connected devices to the SSD. Then it runs a cloud backup "USB" → "sFTP" (as configured in web UI)). Previews are generated meanwhile. Local copy takes minutes; cloud upload can last all night.
