Someone compiled a big list of deals on apps, SaaS software, utilities, books, courses, etc and seems to be taking PRs: https://github.com/trungdq88/Awesome-Black-Friday-Cyber-Mond...


$80 software 50% off to take screenshots and that's a deal? Mac app economy is truly crazy.

Just mind blowing to me when we have FOSS software like ShareX which pretty much does the same and more https://getsharex.com/


If you think that’s wild, wait until you hear about Dropbox and rsync.


I always thought that, with Dropbox, you weren't paying so much for the tech as for the storage space. I'm on a free Dropbox plan, which is presumably using essentially the same tech as a paid plan, just with less storage.


Honestly I understand Dropbox more than a $80 screenshot app


But it takes not just screenshots. But "beautiful screeshots"

Whatever that means


It means it doesn’t work when your screen looks like crap. ;)


Retina(tm) screenshots


I'm more of a Greenshot fan, it's small and gets out of the way. Unfortunately only available for Windows.


Greenshot is available on the mac app store now (for $2).


TBF that is 3 licenses – for one license it is $35. Also quite a lot IMO: it's really just a screenshot cropping and editing tool, since macOS has a screenshot tool already.


Cmd-shift-5 brings up a cropping screenshot tool in MacOS. There is a button in the tool to capture to preview which has some editing tools.


I mean, it's worth it because it's been so helpful, but I bought Recut (which takes the silences out of video editing and is on that list) a couple of weeks ago, and now it's 50% off.

I wonder if marketers ever think about how black friday sales annoy customers.


Hey, Recut creator here :) Glad to hear it's helpful! I also hate this feeling of missing a sale by mere days, so I've been offering partial refunds to folks that bought very recently. Feel free to shoot me an email! (in my profile)
