yep, I bound it to win+shift+s like the screenshots in windows when I made the flip to full time linux a couple years ago. Fell in absolute love with the controls though. Way more powerful than windows screenshots.

> and have it dump to s3 so I can paste around links to screenshots everywhere for work. I wanted something like this too but I modified Flameshot so I don't need a bash script in-between. Flameshot already has a feature to upload to Imgur so I modified that and also added some small things (like randomized file names, some new config options).

  > Flameshot already has a feature to upload to Imgur Didn't they remove it though? Because someone complained about "privacy" or something? Devs promised to bring it back as the plugin, but I wasn't following progress on it, I don't know if that happened yet.

  Same for me. I would love to use it on my Sway desktop, but never managed to make it run there.
