I get unreasonably (okay, reasonably) upset when the simplest way to share an image is to take a screenshot of the image.
Not at all unreasonable imho!
My other favourite is screenshot > Google lens > select text ..
I have to do this all of the time whenever anybody sends me a screenshot of their error message, rather than copying and pasting the error message into the ticket. Or worse still a photo of their screen that shows the error message.
You guys are getting images of errors? It’s like pulling teeth to get that from some users ugh

Seems like a lot of steps, but you get the hang of it pretty quickly. And probably faster than cropping your screenshot, plus you get the original without any compression or other degradations.
