Anybody got any suggestions for a good print-screen / screenshot app?

I’m using the default of Swappy right now and it doesn’t really suit my needs.

The MacOS screenshot app is my ideal.

    I like the default one in KDE (Spectacle). It does everything I need, and can take both screenshots and recordings. I don’t think it works with other DEs though.

      I love flameshot, but unfortunately it’s support for more than one monitor on wayland has me looking for an alternative :(

      Alternative found: Spectacle in rectangular capture mode is the best

    magick import of imagemagick has a crosshair. Here’s my function:

    screnshot() {
        ## script to make screenshots with imagemagick's import command and display them
        ## usage: screenshot <path> <name>
    
        _id="$(date "+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")"
        _dir="${1:-$XDG_CACHE_HOME}"
        _shot="$_dir"/"${2:-shot_$_id}.png"
    
        mkdir -p "$_dir"
        printf '%s\n' "$_shot"
        magick import "$_shot" && \
        magick display "$_shot"
    }
    

    And good old xfce4-screenshooter, xfce4-screenshooter -r and xfce4-screenshooter -w.
