Show HN: EasyShot – macOS screenshot thumbnails that don't disappear after 5s
I kept missing the drag window on macOS's built-in screenshot thumbnail. It fades out in ~5 seconds and if you're not fast enough, you have to go find the file on your Desktop.
EasyShot watches your screenshot folder and shows a floating thumbnail that stays until you drag it into whatever app you need — Slack, Figma, email, wherever.
It's a single Swift file, no dependencies, ~200 lines. Notarized DMG or build from source in one command. Took about 30 minutes to build because the problem was driving me insane.

https://github.com/skelpo/easyshot I'm not familiar with screenshot drag. Does that copy the image into the target? If you take a lot of screenshots, I highly recommend https://shottr.cc (nagware/freemium) - Shows preview with buttons to copy to clipboard and/or save to file - Can be configured to automatically copy/save (open app to preview last capture) - Preview has tons of useful features like crop, annotations, color picker, ruler, OCR OOh! this is the first genuinely interesting thing I've seen on HN for days! I find the biggest issue is when you have multiple 4k monitors, you take a screenshot, and obviously it pops up 3 screens east of my current pointer position, and I just can't get over there quick enough! Whenever I take a screenshot, it is a race against time to drag it where I want it. I believe I am now faster :)
