Looking for screenshot utility for Windows (piefed.social)

Yes I know, Windows bad. But I have to use Windows for work and the snipping tool is just so slow, clunky, and unintuitive and I'm sick of using it. Any recommendations for screenshot utils that can be bound to hotkeys and work much better than the snipping tool would be much welcomed. I'm used to Spectacle on my own PC (CachyOS/KDE) which works wonderfully.

Thanks!

I can honestly say that I've never had any issues with the winkey+shift+s on win 10, though occasionally I do wonder why they never added more shapes to the toolbar palette. I'm a designer by trade and I used it a lot when working on drawings to keep specs straight. One of the more useful windows utilities in my opinion.
