Love flameshot. Did my due diligence for screenshot tools, found it, and never tried anything else again :)

Flameshot is the best! I&#x27;ve been using it for 10+ years. I have it wired up to some hot keys in my window manager, and have it dump to s3 so I can paste around links to screenshots everywhere for work.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kingcu&#x2F;screendrop" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kingcu&#x2F;screendrop</a>

Great software.<p>On a small note: This recent PR is both awesome and pretty funny to me.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;flameshot-org&#x2F;flameshot&#x2F;pull&#x2F;4498#issue-3863178293" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;flameshot-org&#x2F;flameshot&#x2F;pull&#x2F;4498#issue-3...</a>

Flameshot is great! It was one of the reasons I have not switched to Wayland. Although it seems now they have wayland support in beta.

Hopefully wayland support will improve

I love flameshot, before it I used Shutter and I don&#x27;t regret switching to Flameshot whatsoever. I use it on my work and personal laptops (Debian+xfce4)
