If I were more of a hacker and hadn't already paid the best 25 bucks I've ever spent on CleanShot X [0] I'd be all over this.
> There are no macOS port of flameshot now that can be easy installed. But you can build flameshot by yourself and use it.
however the text size is too small and thats a dealbreaker: https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/645 hoping this gets resolved.
This is all I need from the screenshot tool itself and I am glad that they don’t add a bunch of additional options and stuff inside of screenshot taking itself.
If you want to annotate the screenshot open it in Preview and edit it there.
If you need really powerful editing tools, a third-party tool is appropriate.
It’s better that way to me. Have a system that works nicely for everyone, and leave it to third-party developers to build niche tools.
Imagine how much useless to me stuff there would be on my screen, if the operating system had to ship with tools that did absolutely everything for absolutely everyone.
In this project's case, it showcases a lot of features as they're actually used, rather than some bullets that say what it _should_ do. In general, I appreciate a gif like this for explaining because it boils down some essential features into one easily digestable clip. It's a preferable medium for me over a long YouTube video or text explaining how something works.
Like OP, I’m also a HUGE fan of cleanshot x for mac. Got our entire team on it, some were quite happy with the built-in screen grabbing tool on Mac, but pretty much all love Cleanshot.
