Anybody got any suggestions for a good print-screen / screenshot app?
I’m using the default of Swappy right now and it doesn’t really suit my needs.
The MacOS screenshot app is my ideal.
Flameshot, I use it everywhere and it works everywhere
I like flameshot but it needs a bunch of window rule to work properly on kde Wayland apparently it uses some wayland wlroots-isms that plasma doesn’t implement
First I heard of this (but then, I’m stuck on outdated GPU so no Wayland for me T~T)
I use flameshot both on Linux and my Windows work laptop. I definitely recommend it
Second this. Think I heard about it on lemmy, been using it ever since. Built in editing, copy to clipboard, save to file, all the stuff I need.

if you want to use the CLI, (KDE) Spectacle if you need a UI.I don’t know about Swappy but I use Grim + Slurp.
magick import of imagemagick has a crosshair. Here’s my function:
screnshot() { ## script to make screenshots with imagemagick's import command and display them ## usage: screenshot <path> <name> _id="$(date "+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")" _dir="${1:-$XDG_CACHE_HOME}" _shot="$_dir"/"${2:-shot_$_id}.png" mkdir -p "$_dir" printf '%s\n' "$_shot" magick import "$_shot" && \ magick display "$_shot" }
And good old xfce4-screenshooter, xfce4-screenshooter -r and xfce4-screenshooter -w.
Kde’s Spectacle is awesome
it’s the most mac-like (and Windows, it pulls a good medium)
Not sure what the MacOS one is, but i use flameshot and im happy with it
