Basic screenshot capability is a fundamental feature of a graphical desktop OS. Whether you bundle a tool (like many Linux distros) or include your own (like MacOS and Windows) doesn’t really matter, but users shouldn’t have to go find a tool.
It’s great that Greenshot and others to exist for people who want more features or a more specialized tool. But screenshots, image viewer with crop/rotate, text editor, web browser… These are things that all need to be part of the standard installation and need to work without signing up for services or other bullshit.
I think greenshot is still a good alternative to snipping tool on windows. Iirc it’s open source too.
Snipping tool is the single Microsoft program that’s suprised me with how flawlessly it works and how convenient it is.
Don’t worry, they “fixed it”.

All points I agree with. But at this point using winslop is signing up for a sevice. And it’s full of bullshit.
Yep, it’s still FOSS. It genuinely has better markup abilities than the windows tool too, we use it at work.
Its embarrassing that windows can’t be at least this good without account related bullshit
