From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've been using Flameshot, and it's been awesome for just this. Tons of annotations, and very easy to copy or save screenshots.

Yeah but in my LMDE, Flameshot wont save files and is buggy as shit. It has an option to selext what App to open the screen shot in and that does't work, share with another app and that doesn't work, save the file and the files not there. Now, highly possible it works for others and just not for me

Hell, my Logitech kb can't even use the screenshot button to take a screenshot.

I just use work arounds but still annoying.
