Issue
I'm using Gnome Screenshot (Capture d'écran 41.0):
On windows screenshots, there's a black/grey border on each top corner:

You can see that when you insert the screenshot into a white webpage or if you open the screenshot with GIMP and zoom in the top corners.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the attached graphic configuration and reproducing the issue with Gnome Screenshot 41.0 on Cinnamon 5.8.4 and Mint 21.2. Compare window screenshots against a white background and inspect the top corners at high zoom; done means screenshots no longer contain the grey or black corner borders.
