This seems like a Cinnamon not flameshot bug right? If you manually run the command all is fine?

@akirapink I have two questions:

  1. Does it happen the same if you only use --path and not --clipboard?
  2. can you modify your keybinding and add nanosecond to the file so that we see if Cinnamon is double-triggering the keybinding: flameshot screen --path /tmp/$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S-%N).png --number 0
