Regarding Linux:

we utilize the mss module and unfortunately it does not support Wayland -> opened Issue

Fedora and Ubuntu Users.

By default these versions of Linux are using the version of Gnome which is Wayland, in this situation they will be unable to utilize any screenshot functions until we can find a fix.

As an alternative for those people who want to screenshot on that Fedora then you will need to follow this guide to switch to X11

As far as a potential fix we should look into: https://github.com/ponty/pyscreenshot - this seems to be compatible with just about everything, I have high hopes it will work after a bit more digging

or an execution of gnome-screenshot but this may need installed on the system and may not be compiled.. need to test

At some point in my adventure I ran across this command which I believe may have opened up the ability to screenshot on Wayland? xhost +local 127.0.0.0
