Flameshot is great, I use it every day at work and home. The integrated editing/annoation/drawing functions are superb.

Have you ever tried ShareX? How does it compare?

Regular user of sharex here who tried flameshot. Sharex has it beaten by a mile in terms of both features and customization.

Only reason to use flameshot is if you're not on windows, since sharex is not available for Linux or MacOS.

Ah damn. I use sharex but was wanting to switch to Linux. Is there a unanimously agreed upon best replacement for sharex? Might as well try flameshot.

Have you ever used lightshot? How did sharex compare if you have.

[–] IdleSheep@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A long time ago I did before I switched to sharex, which does what lightshot does but better.

Been using ShareX for a bit today, yep, you are right. Far superior. Glad I stumbled on this today!
