Best free video editor out there by miles. No watermark, no nonsense fees
I would second this, I’ve used it multiple times and I have no desire to use anything else, because it provides all the functionality I need. Strongly recommend.
If you’re doing basic and advanced video editing, this is THE open-source solution for your needs.
Performance is a little lacking though, on the other hand it is very very featureful, it certainly has that going for it.
For when I need the speed more I enjoy using Olive a lot
I’ve been using kdenlive in combination with OBS as an Outplayed replacement since I switched to Linux for gaming. It’s great.
It’s the one I’ve been using for a while now and does everything I’ve needed. I did a video overview about it a while ago just showing the basic stuff I use it for, and gives a feel of what it looks like https://youtu.be/nwl6RzymZVg
