Memmy is an early fave (posting from it now) but it reminds me so much of the Dec-Feb app development days for Mastodon. So many fun options to try out!

Not sure what you are using for screenshots but on iPhone, screenshots take you immediately to an edit screen where you can crop & do markup. And the compression is so minimal, I have yet to see a quality issue.

Added bonus was on iOS 16 you could “Copy & Delete” after you were done to avoid filling up your phone memory with random temporary junk.

The only time I save now is if it’s text heavy since on iPhone you can highlight & copy text off an image which I’ll use for alt text for accessibility or to help title/caption a post.

iOS saves screenshots as PNG files that are significantly larger than the original file. Have a look at the two screenshots I’m attaching. I know, I know… screenshot of a screenshot. One is the meme saved directly from Memmy as a jpeg and the other is a screenshot that has been cropped as you suggest to remove all the unnecessary junk and borders. I don’t know about you but I’d rather have the original jpeg.
