I have been using it recently and like it. It is MUCH better than Windows native snipping software. It is also open source and free, so that's an added bonus.

Having said that, I wish we can select the objects (e.g., text box, arrows) we have created and move them around. Right now, we can only undo and if an arrow is drawn a few steps before and now you want to reorient its head, you are out of luck.
In the past (4-5 years ago), I used to use Jing (now called TechSmith Capture) and liked it a lot: https://www.techsmith.com/jing-tool.html https://www.techsmith.com/jing-tool.html and liked it. But I think the company decided to remove some features and/or require some sort of account creation; on top of that, it (if I remember correctly) kind of lost its earlier simplicity, so I stopped using it.

[…] On Windows I like to use Greenshot because the editor opens up in a dedicated window and gives me full control over the objects I place (move, resize, change colors, duplicate, cut-copy-paste, reorder, save objects to file for reuse...). It's also open source, but seems unmaintained for some time now (but there is a fork implementing zoom in the editor).
