Shortcut for `Copy Markdown Image Link to New Screenshot`

We’ve published a new macOS Shortcut (automation) for people who write in Markdown. It is: 💨 Copy Markdown Image Link to New Screenshot. In a nutshell, this enables you to to quickly take illustrated notes about a presentation you’re watching or any content on your screen, whether it’s a PDF, video, web page, state of an app, anything! Just paste the copied links into your notes. Then with a compatible app (like Marked), you’ll be able to see the screenshots in the context of your notes !
