It's up to users to use whatever they find suitable for them. You can use Openshot, Shotcut, Davinci resolve, Kdenlive or even Olive. That's why I added every editing software that exists as possible, so people can pick whatever they like. If you don't like it, don't use it, but it could be helpful to others.
great list but please remove that "openshot" it's trashy when i used it it wasn't lightwate as it was on the function and crashes a lot i offer to try olive video editor simple to use powerfull tool and pretty much lighter then openshot
Nice list, personally I wouldn't use Opera after some things they tried to pull and they way they seem to regard their users with contempt.
Thx for your information. I'm sure that it will help more people choose wisely when looking up at this list
