But you can turn that behavior off, IIRC it tells you the environment variable to set if you don’t want it to do that every time it runs.

I agree it’s annoying, but I haven’t turned it off because it’s only annoying because I’m not keeping my computer (brew packages) up-to-date normally (aka, it’s my own fault).

CleanShotX [0] is what I used. Honestly the cloud hosting aspect is overpriced but it does make sharing a picture/video super easy for cases like this. I know macOS has annotation tools built-in for screenshots but CleanShotX's tools are about 1 billion times faster/easier to use. I use this tool all the time just to take a quick screenshot, add some arrows/circles/text/numbers and send it off.

Not affiliated in any way, just a big fan of any tool that lets me quickly explain or document something. I'd say about 99% of bug tickets I enter into our ticketing tool have a CleanShotX screenshot attached (or video).

Here is an example of a handful of the tools (numbers, text, boxes, arrows, highlight area, and redact): https://cs.joshstrange.com/kSpsv7DG
