Just recently upgraded to bionic, and after using it for a while I mostly got used to it, but the one feature that keeps bothering me painfully is the lack of the printscreen dialog. I understand the initiative to adopt gnome standards, but this is introducing a big inconvenience in comparison to how it was functional in the Unity desktop. It is not just about being able to save printscreens to an arbitrary location under an arbitrary name. It is even more importantly being able to copy a printscreen into a clipboard without saving it to a file on a disk. I used to be able to just copy a printscreen and Ctrl+V it into a IM window, a email client or any webapp. Now I have to take additional steps to open file manager, navigate to the Pictures folder, locate the one printscreen file I need among other ones, and drag&drop it to where I need it, then, delete it. The functionality and user experience has decreased significantly for me, and on top of that I get constantly annoyed by it. I wish Canonical shipped the previous user experience with the new gnome-desktop based Ubuntu. Even as an opt-in!
