Comments about Kdenlive as an Alternative to OpenShot
It's also free and open-source, but i found Kdenlive had a lot more features and was a lot more complex than OpenShot could be. A Windows version is also being worked and, even if it's not perfect right now, it works quite well !
Significantly more complex, but even for my basic editing needs the stability helps A LOT compared to OpenShot
pretty good gpu support for encoding
