@gekitsu have you tried #KDE's scanning applications as Xsane replacements? AFAICT they support a similar range of features:
- #Skanlite - a simple, but fully featured scan application
- #Skanpage - optimized for multi-page scans

@eliasp @davidrevoy no, i haven’t – but thanks for the heads-up! i take it they’re usable outside of KDE itself?

@gekitsu yes, they should work outsidea KDE Plasma session just fine.
Their "apps.kde.org" page provides a (bit outdated) screenshot what they look like:
- apps.kde.org/skanlite/
- apps.kde.org/skanpage/

Maybe (if you're using Flatpak) just give the most recent version a try to see whether they can serve your use-case or check, whether your distribution provides them as packages.

@gekitsu oh, sorry - just realized only Skanpage is available via Flatpak.
But since Skanlite is the more established application it's also more likely to be found in your distribution's repositories.
