I am very much old school. Screencapture using ffmpeg command line (but that uses X11grab ) Edit with an old frame based Avidemux 2.5 The key press is the ancient key-mon utility. I can just about keep these working in Kubuntu 24.04 but I doubt anything newer Smile I am the opposite of Ofnuts, prefer to take screenshot(s) (screengrab) then edit and annotate using Gimp.

All sorts of ways, you just develop your own preferred workflow.

How many times do you find yourself wondering why Gimp is stuck while clicking on the screenshot? Big Grin

err...none...I might be getting old and absent minded but not that.
I use a small utility screengrab that dumps screenshots in a numbered order - then I edit using Gimp.
