Screen Shot not working by default

Issues & Assistance KDE
1

Flameshot is installed but on KDE the PrtSc is not working by default. I had to manually fix the whole setup using the following link & custom shortcuts in settings:

Flameshot-KDE

Yeah we know so we dropped flameshot entirely from our editions

With kde we will be using spectacle from next release

May I ask why that is so? Flameshot seems to be working fantastic for me.

This is my keyboard config:

Personally, as a forever KDE user I prefer to use KDE apps wherever possible. I find spectacle serves my needs just fine.
