Oh wow, I finally got around to playing with flameshot, other than having
to figure out it only lives in the systray, it was pretty dope with
options, and worked fine. Thanks to everyone that recommended this!
I'm certain I'm not using wayland here after some googling last night, xorg
itself works pretty solid for me, so I'm just blaming KDE/KWin for yet more
wonky behavior. I really wish KDE'd quit adding new features like wayland
and other random crap and fix the core graphic issues they've had for some
15 years, like almost anything related to multi-monitor.
