Hey, I'm a former Windows user myself. I also used and enjoyed ShareX on Windows, I haven't found a perfect replacement but KDE Spectacle and Flameshot are pretty good. Flameshot is my personal favourite. Have you tried Peek for capturing GIFs? There's also Kooha.

Everything can search my computer in a few milliseconds without issue but I haven’t gotten close to that on Linux

I almost never need to search my entire computer, but when I do, I use the command-line tool fd. It's very fast and pretty easy to use. You just type fd followed by the expression you want to look for. ANGRYsearch seems to be a GUI replacement for Everything, haven't tried that one out though.
