Yes I know, Windows bad. But I have to use Windows for work and the snipping tool is just so slow, clunky, and unintuitive and I'm sick of using it. Any recommendations for screenshot utils that can be bound to hotkeys and work much better than the snipping tool would be much welcomed. I'm used to Spectacle on my own PC (CachyOS/KDE) which works wonderfully.

Thanks!

Upvote for Greenshot. There are others, like ShareX, but Greenshot is very lightweight and functional. Always my goto, I wish most sofware was made like that.
