Switching to Ubuntu a few questions?

Hello. Due to production needs, you need to migrate to Linux. Installed Ununtu 18.04. But as if now there is a lack of some tools and functionality.
1) You need an analogue of Total Commander (console MC doesn’t impress me, just like Far on Windows), you need something graphic
2) A program for screenshots, such as LightShot or ScreenPresso (I will use this one, very convenient). As if I googled the console ones, but then it’s not clear how I can take a screenshot of the context menu, for example, or some drop-down list, while I switch to the console, there will be nothing to screenshot. It would also be nice if you can edit the screenshot, that is, crop and overlay text.
3) I did hibernation according to the instructions, but now it’s not clear how to transfer the laptop to this mode, there is no hibernation button, when you turn it off programmatically or when the shutdown button on the laptop is pressed, for some reason it just turns off, and nothing happens when you turn it on. Maybe it's because I didn't create a swap file, because the new Ubuntu doesn't need it, or what?
Thanks to all.

Do you have specific requirements for a screenshot program?
Shift+PrtScr should work on Ubuntu
There is also

I would advise you to install linux mint, it went further than ubunta, for example, hibernation works out of the box there (I don’t know why it doesn’t work in ubuntu, it’s strange)
1. there are a lot of alternatives, for example double-commander, in mint even nautilus can be done side -by-side)
2. the only normal one under Linux is joxi

1. For the selected DE, if it is a gnome or KDE, there are probably a lot of commanders. But as Viktor Taran rightly noted - if it is planned "they lived happily ever after" - you will have to master the console and without fail - mc. Because in Linux, DE is exactly DE, and not something comprehensive, without which it is impossible to solve ordinary admin tasks. Linux administration does not require graphics. From the word at all.
2. I use TDE, so I take screenshots with KScreenShot and edit them with KPaint.
3. I don't know, I don't have a laptop

1. Get used to MS not everything is in Linux in a graphical version, but what is full x. Since no one needs graphics in Linux, the more often you use the console, the faster you will become a Linux user.
2. The standard screenshot in the system is much richer than the screw one, why does it not suit you?
3. there is no laptop so I won’t say anything, but there were problems with it before, but as far as I know in the latest ubunts this problem is solved.
