CLUSTER CAPTURES-DESKTOP-SCREEN · 62 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2012-09-24
Screen capture utilities
This cluster contains 56 similar products that capture screen images, regions, or recordings, often tailored to specific display servers (X11, Wayland, Linux framebuffer) or operating systems, with a range of extras such as editing, uploading, or watermarking. Entries appear across the dated history from March 2011 through June 2026 at a steady one-to-two-per-month rate, with a slight concentration in 2025 and early 2026. The leading product by traction signal is ShareL (5 stars), followed by winshotx (2 stars) and screenshot-exactly-now-75 (1 star).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 2 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
- 61myss0★unknownlivehand-codedhobbyUtility that automatically takes a screenshot every minute during gameplay on Linux and Mac.
- 62ScreenFlame0★unknownliveDesktop utility for capturing screen regions and recording desktop sessions on X11 or Wayland systems.
Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
