The native Windows Snipping Tool is pretty good. It is bundled with an editor and the built-in key bind Win+Shift+S is easy enough to remember. Unfortunately (maybe because they are working on screen recording?) its been busted for a few weeks now at the time of writing (check out the recent reviews) and I needed a work around.

Turns out that snipaste is way better anyway! For some reason installing it with scoop didn’t work for me but getting it from the Microsoft Store did. It’s feature packed and quite intuitive. The first customization I made was change the default f1 and f3 copy/paste keybinds to Alt+S and Alt+V 👍

Also for screen recording I poked around ScreenToGif which I think I’ll keep around and see if I like…
