I always forget Firefox has a builtin screenshot tool. It's actually super handy, as it recognizes parts of the website by just mouse hover it, such as blocks of code.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It can also take scrolling screenshots.
The only thing I miss it has was an automatic save function after taking a screenshot. This would allow for combining (with a script) the output (file) with another tool (such as editing or uploading to a specific service). But that's just a nitpick from my side, because of my personal workflow.
Edit: Well I have another great idea how to improve the screenshot utility! It should bet able to hold Ctrl-key on the keyboard, while clicking multiple elements. Just like selecting files in the file browser. And Shift-key to specify a range of clicked areas. Just for the icing on the cake!
In my experience it doesn't work too great.
I only found it recently and it’s saved me so much time with being able to take screenshots of whole web page elements.
Hi, thanks for sharing this news, but please post the release notes from the Mozilla website, instead of (or at least along with) a third party service.
Good point. Will do.
Thanks :)
Whats that feature that groups tabs together for a better workflow that a few other web browsers have? Anyhow is Firefox working on that?
Yes they are
any estimated version of arrival?
