How's it compare to greenshot?

Basically same feature set with better ui

I found that Flameshot does not automatically select an annotation tool after snipping - which turned me off it.

Unless there is a setting I missed that enabled that. I went with Ksnip as a result.

ShareX is my favourite, but that UI doesn't scale.

It'd say just as good. I prefer the text based menu of greenshot. The options in this are all icons, so I end up hovering over them all the time to confirm what they are. Works just as well, otherwise.

Ksnip is basically a drop-in replacement for greenshot for Linux.
