What video editing and UI/UX/illustration software would you recommend on Linux?

I know I could use Inkscape over Sketch for example but I can't see how I would be as productive as the clone functionality isn't comparable to the symbols functionality of Sketch e.g. you can create a reusable web page header element that you can paste in multiple locations with the colours + text changed via simple parameters where the rest is kept in sync with the original. Is there something similar?

Hopefully we'll see a maintained list to block those with the PiHole.

I can say for myself that now I personally study the details of how to make high-quality footnotes correctly and there is really nothing complicated here.
