• 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

• Documenting Wilderness Bugs

  For people like me who are on Linux; Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (and downstream variants) now have a really fancy screenshot tool. But for screen recording, I'd recommend using ScreenRec. It's free, records at the press of two keys, can record in 4K, and gives you 2GB of free, private cloud storage. Source: almost 2 years ago

• The crew cryo pods in my new wip colony ship. 180 in total.

  P.S. You know you can just use F12 for screenshots right? Unless this is console, then nevermind. If it is PC though, I recommend using Screen Rec if you want to capture only a specific part of the screen. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Free Screen Recorder for a very low-end laptop.

  I tried a lot of different softwares and now use Screenrec. https://screenrec.com/. Source: over 2 years ago
