Can you recommend me a tool compatible with GNOME and Wayland, that allows taking screenshots with on-the-fly editing features like drawing or blurring?

Flameshot worked well on X11, but unfortunately, it lacks Wayland support. ShareX was a great tool on Windows; now I’m looking for something similar for Wayland.

    Taking screenshots? What’s the use case for that? That’s an invalid use case. Didn’t you know wayland is only a protocol?

      I’m amazed people don’t get the reference to Gnome devs here. I’m not even a Gnome user and I got the joke right away.

        I guess most people got the reference, but it is just a very tired “joke” that just isn’t funny… and I can’t remember if it was even funny in 2000 when the joke was starting to get popular, but I guess not.

        I don’t get it either. I’d like to be educated on the topic. What do I look for?

            TL;DR: the changes made to Gnome well over a decade ago aren’t my cup of tea so that means the devs are evil pieces of shit who hate their users.

            Gnome 3 was announced in, what, 2008? And released a little while after. I think people need to let go. The workflow being very different to Windows/MacOS is not a personal attack.
