Quick image uploading program? (Ubuntu 20.10)

I'm slowly migrating to Ubuntu 20.10 from a (brief) lifetime of Windows, and enjoying the transition. I'm more fond of GNOME than I expected.

One tool I've been missing is puush, which is a Windows/MacOS/Android program that allows you to take a (cropped) screenshot and immediately upload it, and then insert the image URL into your clipboard. It can do this from your clipboard (if you've copied an image), from a cursor select (accessed through a keybind), or even from Windows Explorer (through the right-click context menu).

I'm currently using GNOME's native screenshot feature, which does half of what I need perfectly well- taking a cropped snapshot via Shift + PrtSc and saving it to my Pictures file. However, I would like to have a quick method of uploading this to an image sharing website and sharing the URL to the image.

I'd like such a program to be up-to-date (i.e. unlike Shutter if possible, if not, fine), and I'd be the happiest if I could use it through the overhead notification/status bar, Files/Nautilus, or a keybind.

What are my options? I'm also open to a more cohesive program that does the screenshotting for me as well.

I got Shutter as a snap (?) from this link, and it installed without any problems. I'm satisfied with it.
