Memory leak after after every pinned screenshot in OSX?

After each pinned screenshot, it seems that the corresponding memory will not be released. Mac users do not have the habit of shutting down. After about three or four days after booting, the flameshot memory usage reaches 300M-500M.
Steps to reproduce
After each pinned screenshot, and click ESC to close it, You can see that the memory usage is getting more and more...

This is a relatively long video, to test if your hypothesis/statement is reproducible on Linux (X11). It seems you are right, although 500MB seems a bit far-fetched unless you are taking an extreme amount of very large pinned screenshot in those 4 days! Nonetheless, it seems this is an issue and should be addressed. Thank you for reporting it.

I seem to be experiencing the same thing, about ~550MB of memory usage by Flameshot
