Thai beef salad. It was soooo good

I was staying at a hotel once, and there was a network in range called "YouNeedSecurityBadly"

I think the main thing I like is that it fits so seamlessly within my workflow. I can customize the functions I use to happen the way I want them to.

It has the same functions as the default app:

  • ability to take screenshots of all or part of a screen (with/without timer)
  • ability to take a screen recording of all or part of a screen (with/without a timer)

But it also provides options for:

  • adding simple markup to your screenshot (lines/arrows/text/squares etc). As a developer, I often want to take a screenshot and add a bit of text or an arrow to highlight something to someone I'm trying to explain something to
  • ability to do scrolling screen captures
  • recording in MP4
  • trimming screen recording videos
  • removing or including audio in screen recording videos
  • recording animated GIFs instead of video
  • reducing resolution (for filesize) after capture
  • hide desktop icons during screen capture
  • change/hide desktop background wallpaper during capture
  • options to customize shortcut keys for various operations, or customize workflow (for example I like screenshots to be automatically added to my clipboard after capture or markup so I can immediately paste in whatever chat I'm having with colleagues)
  • options for keeping a history of screenshots/recordings
  • options (I don't use) for cloud share/storage

CleanShot X is great for screenshots and screen recordings, and markup of them.

Disappointed the song didn't make it all the way to Port Melbourne

Thanks. That article was great. I feel like I’ve been cooking pasta all wrong, for all these years.
