  • Lightshot app not starting up.
    I like others in the comments here, found FlameShot on github https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot which seems to be a carbon copy of LightShot with some very good extra features! Source: 11 months ago
  • Microsoft to change PrintScreen button to open the Snipping Tool in Windows 11
    I feel like it's actually a rare great idea out of Microsoft. Too bad the Shipping Too sucks eggs compared to FlameShot (now available on Windows!): https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot#preview ;). - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
  • flameshot not working in sway (typing "flameshot gui" hangs in the terminal)
    See these links for more info: * flameshot: flameshot gui from cli does nothing. Dbus error UnknownMethod: "No such interface “org.freedesktop.portal.Screenshot” #2872 * xdg-desktop-portal: No such interface “org.freedesktop.portal.Screenshot” on object at path /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop #861 * xdg-desktop-portal-wlr: screenshot: Announce version property.

  • Draw on screenshots
    Don't know if this solves your problem but I'm using flameshot for these kinds of things since many years. It's a great screenshot utility tool and I've configured DWM to take a screenshot / open up flameshot when pressing a certain key combo. It allows everything you'd want from such a utility (including drawing, annotating, numbering, ...). Source: over 1 year ago
  • What software do you miss from Windows & macOS?
    FlameShot is fairly close to ShareX (not quite 1:1 though). Source: over 1 year ago
