I will throw another option, very lightweight: licecap, works on win and osx, from the original dev of winamp!

Personally, I'm fond of https://asciinema.org/

Not sure how OP did it, but I use peek. Pretty handy for readmes, even for showing clients stuff without having to deploy.

If you’re on OS X, gifox is nice.[0]
