Screenshot tool

Expected

Something as good as ShareX (GitHub repo) that I used on Windows

Potential solutions

Screenshot tool

• Built-in: xfce4-screenshooter (just search for Screenshot in the apps)
• https://flameshot.org/
  • pamac install flameshot
  • No gif capture
  • Works fine for basic screenshotting
• pamac install peek :heavy_check_mark:
  • This works pretty well for gifs
  • Only problem is that it's deprecated (as of 2023-01-14)

• pamac install kooha :x:

  • I couldn't get this one to work and seems like they don't support non-GNOME desktop environments.

Xfce4-screenshooter Probably already have it? The program shows up in the start menu as Screenshot Something to try
