When taking a screen shot in Ubuntu 22.04 using the PrtSc key, the image is always saved in the ~/Pictures/Screenshots/ directory. However, I generally almost always paste that image to another application and I do not want it to be saved as a file. Besides of filling this directory with unneeded files, I do not want some confidential screen shot information to go to the file system in the first place.

Please note that I am talking about the new "internal" screen shot feature of GNOME 42.x which is activated using the PrtSc key and not the old Screenshot application (gnome-screenshot).

Is there any hidden option to disable or at least change the destination directory? If not, I will have to switch to the old applications like gnome-screenshot or flameshot.
