    Of all the free Premiere alternatives I've tried, this is the easiest one to work with and it seems very reliable.

    Linear video editor supporting basic cutting, filtering, encoding, batch scripting, and many formats; ideal for single-file edits, trimming, re-encoding, and simple cleanup but not for multi-track or montage projects requiring nonlinear editing capabilities.

    Avidemux is a great app, I use it all the time, but it's not a Premiere alternative. I use it to quickly delete unnecessary segments in my screen recording videos while preserving the original video encoding. In other words, no quality loss and no need to run the lengthy video encoding process.
