Not sure what you are using for screenshots but on iPhone, screenshots take you immediately to an edit screen where you can crop & do markup. And the compression is so minimal, I have yet to see a quality issue.
Added bonus was on iOS 16 you could “Copy & Delete” after you were done to avoid filling up your phone memory with random temporary junk.
The only time I save now is if it’s text heavy since on iPhone you can highlight & copy text off an image which I’ll use for alt text for accessibility or to help title/caption a post.
iOS saves screenshots as PNG files that are significantly larger than the original file. Have a look at the two screenshots I’m attaching. I know, I know… screenshot of a screenshot. One is the meme saved directly from Memmy as a jpeg and the other is a screenshot that has been cropped as you suggest to remove all the unnecessary junk and borders. I don’t know about you but I’d rather have the original jpeg.
