The best app for screenshot. I wish this app was standard in all Linux distros.
For those of you who take screenshots on a regular basis, whether it be for sending to friends or for more official purposes: Flameshot is by and far the best screenshot utility ever, at least from what I've used (which admittedly isn't much). The amount of time and effort that Flameshot has saved me is incalculable at this point, and depending on your perspective, the time saved is in itself invaluable. If you take screenshots regularly, you're doing yourself a disservice by not at least trying Flameshot.
Great screenshoter with many utilities. It can save to file and/or clipboard, and provides tools to annotate without having to get into a drawing app. Pinning screenshots and having them always on top saves a ton of time. It does fail to capture some tooltips that other screenshoters also fail to capture. I haven't tried uploading. No errors encountered after using for about a year (currently on Mint 22.1 Cinnamon). Use Flameshot with different options by creating entries in Mint's Keyboard > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts.
Easy to use and integrates well. I set up the shortcuts in the Mint Keyboard shortcuts menu for maximum consistency and flexibility. Easier to understand than ShareX was on Win, though technically a bit less featured. It was so intuitive I ended up with more feature power in practice. Now I don't need to drop into paint or a paint app for edits and just do it on the fly.
It should be the default screenshot tool on the OS, easy to use and simple. You can make shortcuts to screen an area, do it with delay, screen the current display and so on. Offers an easy to use screenshot editor.
I mean, what can u add in this. a perfect screenshot tool. I mean windows screenshot is nothing compared to this.i added print key to start this and take screenshot, now i can take single btn screenshots. What a masterpeice by opensource community. Sooo good app. I would like to be made by system package instead of flatpack for linux mint specifically in future.
Upload always fails. "Error transferring https://api.imgur.com/3/image?title=&description=2024-09-18_13-41 - server replied: client read error"
Works well with my job, needing to highlight and write comments on screenshots. This has saved me a huge amount of time and it's so customisable. Who knew that screenshot software could get this good!
This worked at first .. uploading to Imgur. It has not worked in two weeks now and I've uninstalled/reinstalled. I've tried the Mint package and Flathub, but only get "Error transferring https://api.imgur.com/3/image?title=&description=2024-03-08_23-48 - server replied: client read error"
Works like a charm! Drawing a red rectangle, placing text and sequence numbers is very easy. Perfect for your manuals.
This is the best screenshot program I have seen! It even allows for uploading online, and custom automatic file naming like for example "Saturday, 9th of September 2023, 23;32.png". 10/10! Thank you for making it! ^^,
Excellent and highly customizable, far superior to Windows' "snipping tool". This one too can be made to run when PrtScn is pressed.
10+ year user of LinuxMint, but never have I reviewed a piece of software. However, I was willing to spend the extra time getting signed up just to rank flameshot the maximum rating. Wow! What a useful tool. Thanks so much to the creators and developers of this tool!
My main dislike is that Flameshot makes the screen too dark before you select the region that you want to screenshot. This makes it very difficult for me to see what's on the screen and what to select. My second dislike is that Flameshot saves to the clipboard if you press Enter after you've finished selecting the region that you want to screenshot. It can save the screenshot to your files too if you click the floppy disk, but I wish that this was the action that pressing Enter would do instead. Aside from those two issues, it's a decent screenshot application.
Works ok but this version is too old (from 2019). There are at last 8 new releases after this one: v0.6.0
