Anyone use this? Opinions?
Tried to use Shotcut years ago to edit a documentary and it crashed constantly. Neat idea, bad execution. Maybe it’s gotten better since then but it was unusable for serious work ca 2015.
This looks identical to Kdenlive, how is this different from kdenlive? https://docs.kdenlive.org/en/user_interface.html#user-interf...

I used it for awhile, but there are a lot of short comings. It's very unintuitive and I would often spend more time trying to figure out how to do a thing than doing a thing.
