Feature Description

Hi, I am using flameshot under Ubuntu since many years.

For my job I have to use Windows + WSL2, but I wish to use flameshot under WSL2 too.

Is it possibile?

I wonder why don't you use our native Windows build?

The reason is the following: I use many WLSg applications under WSL2, so the the clipboard sharing between Windows and WSLg apps does not work.

For example: I use Chromium under WSL2; I capture a screenshot by flameshot under WSL2; I paste the grabbed image into the Web WhatsApp tab.

Thanks, but can't you use the Windows version to take the screenshot? I'm not Windows user and don't know much about WSL in practice.
