Can you recommend me a tool compatible with GNOME and Wayland, that allows taking screenshots with on-the-fly editing features like drawing or blurring?
Flameshot worked well on X11, but unfortunately, it lacks Wayland support. ShareX was a great tool on Windows; now I’m looking for something similar for Wayland.

Flameshot has wayland support, however there seems to be some issues that might need to be worked around. Like https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/3326#issuecomment-1854902229
I noticed that the Flatpak didn’t work on Fedora 39, probably due to how they build the flatpak or something. I had no problem taking screenshots under Fedora 39 Wayland session using the Appimage.
Try Satty? It’s inspired by flameshot, Wayland native, and written in Rust.
GNOME has one built in. Just hit the “print screen” button and it should appear.
with on-the-fly editing features like drawing or blurring?
Unfortunately the built-in screenshot tool doesn’t have any editing capabilities.
Did a quick search and ksnip seems to be the only fully featured option. Watershot seems nice.
But also looking into it, Flameshot seems to have full support for Wayland so I’m not sure why you’re saying it doesn’t?
Taking screenshots? What’s the use case for that? That’s an invalid use case. Didn’t you know wayland is only a protocol?
