Five Screenshot Applications For Linux
Channel: DistroTube
Date: 2022-01-24

Which screenshot tool do I use?  Well, today I will discuss several screenshot programs that I have used on Linux.  While they all have some similar functionality, there are small differences that may make one of these apps the right tool for you.

ERRATA:
When I show the region select with Flameshot, I was using the appimage version of Flameshot.
he appimage was messed up,  which is why I switched to the standard package, but I forgot to re-record the clip with the  region select.   Oops.  So all of the circles surrounding the rectangle selection should have displayed icons.  Those icons let you do things to edit the image.   Apparently the appimage was having trouble displaying those icons.
