Even better, try Flameshot. Open source, cross platform, and lets you do very useful simple edits, like add arrows, shapes, text, and censoring.

I'm a Greenshot user here. Similar ability to edit and customize default actions when hitting print screen. It's the one thing I miss in Linux

Why greenshot over flameshot? Flameshot works on Linux

[–] WashedOver@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Wasn't aware it was available for Linux. I'll check it out

I use a ball mouse and so I can't adjust the width of the drawing tools easily. Greenshot is a little less slick much easier for me to use.

Does this have any screen recording features? Can’t seem to find any on the web page the editing feature is what has me thinking of trying it over shareX but i love screen recording with sharex too

Have you tried the built-in recorder from the game bar?

[–] Synthead@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

No, it's just a screenshot program
