Flameshot como alternativa Linux a ShareX
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
Flameshot is a solid replacement for ShareX if your main need is taking annotated screenshots and quickly sharing them. It excels at region and full-screen captures with immediate editing and one-click upload to Imgur. However, it does not support screen recording or GIF creation, so users needing video capture or automated workflows beyond simple uploads will find it limited. It’s ideal for lightweight, privacy-focused screenshot tasks on Linux, but not a full multimedia tool.

Abrir tus archivos de ShareX
Flameshot saves screenshots as PNG or JPEG, which are universally compatible with any system or app that opens those formats. If you're migrating from ShareX, any saved images or exported files in PNG/JPEG can be used directly. However, ShareX project files or recorded videos (MP4/WebM) cannot be opened or edited in Flameshot, as it does not support video or proprietary project formats.

Can Flameshot record my screen like ShareX?
No, Flameshot only captures static screenshots. For screen recording, consider SimpleScreenRecorder or Kazam.
Does Flameshot support custom upload targets?
Not directly. It supports Imgur out of the box, but you can script other destinations using its DBus interface or post-upload hooks.
Is Flameshot as customizable as ShareX?
For screenshots and annotations, yes — but ShareX offers deeper workflow automation, which Flameshot lacks.
