Disclaimer: I don’t know anything about the dependencies of Flameshot. Perhaps this is related that in Cosmic they are moving away from X to Wayland?
In any case. I’ve tried flameshot so many times and I always come to the same conclusion. It has too much stuff; it tries to do so many things that I just get confused when all I want to do is take a quick window capture or a selection area capture. I can do post processing if needed in some other app. Gnome’s screenshot app is perfect; and Pop’s implementation that they’re showing here looks very similar.
But I get it that some folks might want those extra features. Cool, it’s just not for me.
Gnome is just being stupid in hardcoding an exception for only its own tool under the guise of privacy.
And yeah, it’s complicated, but it’s fast for power users. Maybe it’s no frills design makes it appear more complicated and as a other comment states, maybe there’s a way to uncomplicate it (but I totally understand if you don’t want to use it)

You can turn off the extra stuff in Flameshot. I’ve been using it w slimmed down options for months.
Flameshot works on Wayland (atleast on KDE)
