But what about users which actually have ffmpeg installed? Do you think they don't deserve having peek in menu?

NO, it's not required on cinnamon, users can use the screenshot+ Record desktop applet instead.
Could you, please, stop with these definitely uncalled for shout outs? Users should definitely have a freedom of choice, and as Samuel pointed out in this thread, the package is not installed by default, so should you find it unsuitable for your system (either a different DE or missing ffmpeg), you can simply uninstall it and replace it with any of the numerous alternatives already previously mentioned.
Throwing tantrum because peek doesn't work in your DE won't help in any way apart from causing unnecessary flame wars.
Well, the truth is, it *does* work. We just don't have a crippled version of ffmpeg in Fedora. I wish we did, but I vaguely recall something indicating we can't have one. :(
Anyway, vokoscreen was rewritten to use GStreamer now, so that can be packaged and used everywhere... https://github.com/vkohaupt/vokoscreenNG
