skhd VS flameshot

It exists! Check out [yabai](https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai), which is nicely paired with [skhd](https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd).

I have a 49 inch CRG9 and the best recommendation for window management is Yabai (https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai) along with skhd (https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd). Yabai is a greedy window management solution that tries to fit opened applications in given space and skhd let's you easily jump between those using keyboard shortcuts. This has massively improved my ultrawide experience.

Only disclaimer is, configuring yabai has a slight learning curve.

I want to echo this as well. I use a 2nd tool to help me add additional i3-like keyboard shortcuts as well (I have the ability to "stack" windows with Alt-S and rotate through them with Alt-J and Alt-K).

It's called skhd https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd

I forgot where the script for the stacking is. I can look that up separately, but I'm on mobile atm.

Try rcmd or skhd.

What I've done is configure yabai and skhd in a way that somewhat mimics my i3 setup (dotfiles in case it helps) with the help of Karabiner-Elements since Apple wouldn't recognize my keyboard layout properly (or at all...).

I use NixOS+GNOME+pop-shell for tiling windows on Linux, and I love it!

I am quite frequently on MacOS, and I use Yabai[0] and skhd[1], managed with Nix-Darwin for tiling windows and custom keyboard shortcuts. With how I make my Linux and MacOS builds look and feel identical it's pretty easy for me to forget when I'm on one vs the other.

For anyone curious, here's my repository for deploying my configs[3]. It's awesome to have one source of truth for managing NixOS servers and workstations, MacOS workstations, and other Linux workstations with Nix installed.

You can install skhd with brew install skhd, and configure it by writing the following lines inside ~/.skhdrc:

I personally use skhd for binding hotkeys to multiple terminal commands. BetterTouchTool can also chain multiple commands, but I find it harder to edit than in an UI, depends on what you're comfortable with.

That, combined with skhd (for script hotkeys) and my rcmd app (for app switching) gave me a much better solution than the hard to edit config I had in Karabiner.

For your screenshots simply use Flameshot: https://flameshot.org

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.

Flameshot is a free and open-source screenshot tool for Linux that allows users to take screenshots of an area, a window or the full screen. It then provides an editor where users can modify the screenshots by drawing on them, adding text, highlighting areas, blurring parts and more. Users can save the screenshots in common image formats like PNG and JPEG, and upload them directly to image hosting sites like Imgur.

I would recommend Flameshot, available on Linux, Windows and Mac.

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.

Flameshot viene con todo eso.
