Is there a convenient document scanning program for Linux?

Good afternoon
I'm looking for a convenient free program to work with a scanner in Linux.
There are quite a lot of them under Windows (NAPS2, WinScan2pdf, Hippo Scan), but for Linux I have not found anything comparable in terms of convenience and functionality.
Tried the following:

  • Simple Scan - currently stopped at it. In general, the functionality is almost enough, but it does not fit very well in KDE.
  • NAPS2 - it is claimed to work under Linux using mono, but in reality it works very unstable, often crashes, and looks very foreign.
  • Skanlite - should be a great replacement for Simple Scan for KDE, but no... it doesn't even know how to save to pdf
  • XSane - the interface is extremely overloaded and not convenient

There is also VueScan, but its price tag is not at all humane.

Forgot about the existence of gscan2pdf .
Able to make multi-page documents, perform basic editing operations (rotation / cropping), selective saving, OCR, etc.

I also have a Document Scanner on Ubuntu, it didn't seem to be on the list. Haven't used it so I can't say anything bad.
