Blender is alright. It's cool that it has a video editor but it feels a little bolted on.
Davinci Resolve is not actually free for highest quality.
Kdenlive is essentially just a front-end for ffmpeg. Highest quality render settings don't cost anything but like much open source software the interface leaves something to be desired.
I accidentally changed the layout of the app and could not figure out how to undo it back to default haha. Panicked for a bit but thankfully found an answer online.
It is a great tool though (free too) and yeah been using it for years.
I tried "kdenlive" for Windows, and it seems cool, but the UI is a bit old, not very handy in comparison to more modern tools in the browser.
Idem for Blender, it is very powerful, but there are a few steps to make it usable in Video Sequence mode. Also it's a detail, but the filepicker (to import MP4 files) is not the Windows native filepicker, so it's not possible to copy/paste a path... All these little things make it less handy, in comparison to other tools.
Would you have an idea for a in-browser tool? (Without the recurring payment thing; I'm ok for a one time payment)
