New Version Release #3732

Feature Description

The last version was 2 years ago. There have hundreds of updates since. The maintainers are busy and as they say, not being paid a penny for their work. Going to try and create a bounty for this and I suggest others pitch in to one of the best screenshot tools out there. If you're like me and you find that the 'pin' feature of this tool is the best productivity boost in the last 5 years, you should throw them some money because it's more useful than half the crappy big-company software you have to use on a regular basis. Thanks for the great product!

@jpmorris Thank you for your kind words and your concerns. The features queued for v13 is tracked in the following milestone: https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues?q=milestone%3Av13+

We have been asking for C++ developer for over a year now, and so far no one bothered to join or contribute. This is a community project (from the community for the community), and it cannot go forward without the community either. As we have said numerous times, every help, even as little as fixing a typo is highly appreciated and is a step forward. The more eyes that are on the code, the better and safer software we all will have. So if you can contribute (documentation, code, ideas,...) please do so.

Regarding Rysolv, as I also explained in #3084, choosing an alternative platform is not straightforward. I'll look into it though and see if there are platforms that we can use. It would be great if you can chime in and help us going through them and discussing them. Perhaps the best place for that would be our Matrix channel in the Help room:

I will keep this thread open, but I will hid the non-constructive comments above to keep the thread clean and easier to read by others in case they also want to weigh in and provide their opinions/ideas. Thanks again.

@NeilRiver No, the project is not dead, nor it's maintainers.
