Flameshot – Powerful, yet simple to use open-source screenshot software

The UI and features look well-polished. I use ShareX, another open-source tool but only available for Windows. However, a crucial feature for me is quick screen recording (GIF or MP4), which Flameshot seems to lack. Does it have this feature? It's not mentioned on the landing page.

I use ShareX for mp4 and gif using CTRL+PrtSc / SHIFT+PrtSc and for image screenshot only PrtSc (currently lightshot, will aoon move to flameshot)

On Linux for screen recording I use Peek and I really like the approach

You just resize Peek‘s transparent window over the part of the screen that you want and hit record

I make heavy use of Peek and it's great. Unfortunately it's abandoned so will likely stop working eventually.

Oh, I was not aware of this. Very sad to see this
