This has the same issue as most screenshot software, it's out of date relative to modern devices. Every Mac laptop for the last ~4 years has an HDR display. Many windows devices are also HDR. But this app doesn't capture HDR.
I tried putting up an HDR image and then capturing the screen. All HDR brightness was gone from the image.
I get it's not easy per-se. It wasn't until MacOS Tahoe that Apple's own screen capture on Mac started supporting HDR. Windows 10/11, AFAIK, only supports HDR through the XBox Game Bar's capture. Apps like ShareX still only capture SDR.
I mostly bring that up because I have apps the draw HDR and spent some time trying to find ways to add tests that we're actually getting HDR on the screen using screen captures. I hit a wall and gave up (2021).
Flameshot is the best! I've been using it for 10+ years. I have it wired up to some hot keys in my window manager, and have it dump to s3 so I can paste around links to screenshots everywhere for work.
Love flameshot. Did my due diligence for screenshot tools, found it, and never tried anything else again :)
Your comment makes me think this is even sketchier which was already at 'very sketchy'. You did exactly zero code audit. It's probably malware.

Couldn't see how you derived that from GP? You read their mind?
Great software.
On a small note: This recent PR is both awesome and pretty funny to me.

Ambitious!

Flameshot is great! It was one of the reasons I have not switched to Wayland. Although it seems now they have wayland support in beta.
The good news is a few lines of shell scripting, grim, slurp and satty can be combined to create a decent alternative.
Hit a hotkey, capture a region, get presented with a way to annotate it and easily copy it to your clipboard or write it to disk. I use it on a multi-monitor system and it works no problem.
Here's an example from my dotfiles: https://github.com/nickjj/dotfiles/blob/master/.local/bin/do...
It supports capturing a region, a specific window or the focused monitor.
I think it's beta for a reason. I just tried the appimage for their latest release and it's behaving in the same broken way that I remember.
I have a multi-monitor setup with different size & resolution screens, so that may be a factor for the problems I'm having. Really hope it'll work someday.
Hopefully wayland support will improve
I love flameshot, before it I used Shutter and I don't regret switching to Flameshot whatsoever. I use it on my work and personal laptops (Debian+xfce4)
