I know Signal is specific, so I am trying to find another app where I can reproduce this issue.

Comment 2 Nate Graham 2024-08-19 21:19:09 UTC

Do you have Spectacle set up save images in the JPEG file format?

Comment 3 Bacteria 2024-08-20 04:11:14 UTC

Indeed. Changing it to PNG fixes the issue for me.
