Automatically Saving Screenshots to a folder
For example on my wm config I use maim -- printscreen ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_s), spawn "maim -s ~/Pictures/$(date +%s).png"), ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_x), spawn "maim -s | xclip -selection clipboard -t image/png"), qtile is written in python and I guarantee you that you will learn plenty tinkering on your machine.

I ran 'time tree' once on the gnome-terminal and then on tty3 on my Ubuntu 20.04.2 install in the '/' directory. These are the final outputs. Why is there a difference in the count of files and directories and most importantly why is there such a huge difference in the time taken for them to execute
you could use scrot or maim. This explains how to use scrot :) Simply open a terminal, type scrot and the filename..

lcd drawing tablet screen/pen viewport "mapped" over portion of screen, wayland
First, conceptually this is what I mean: think about when using a good screen-capture/annotation tool like flameshot: you select a region of the screen, and "magic" you can "edit" it, "in situ". No, what I'm talking about wouldn't share any of the same technical underpinnings with the way flameshot works, it would be the live monitor output, not a raster dump of the screen made to look like it's live. And the annotating would be done on a different screen. But as a user, this is pretty similar.

MSPaint like tool for Linux
This https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/issues/1529 mat or may not be an issue for you with Flameshot, but it may be for others. It's solvable if it is an issue by using mandatory access control such as AppArmor or conditional build. Just FYI.
