Thank you for your feedback, the 30fps limit is temporary, until I have fully tested perfs with video files at a higher framerate can you tell me more about 'and let go with momentum', not sure what you mean? Is it about loss of precision, not being responsive, bad snapping to closest frame?
This is easiest to do by moving things far too fast, if I pick up a ball and 'flick' it with my mouse, then let go of the button and mouse, the ball ends up moving along further. If you can't duplicate it, I can send you a short screen recording (I would just upload, but where do you upload <1MB binary files nowadays that isn't an ad-filled mess?)
it has a web player built in as well.

Winamp would like to have a word with you :) Granted I'm using the latest release from 2018, but I still sometimes load up v2.x released in 1998 just to show people that 25+ year old software still works just fine... even the AVS visualizer and Shoutcast internet radio features work, which is to me just insane. I also use older software quite often that has long since been updated, such as older versions of Audacity,…
We’re not talking about Winamp. A more accurate comparison is the Adobe CS suite: no one use CS5 anymore.
But sometimes you have important old projects.
For example, my parents used photoshop elements to touch up all of my sister’s baby photos.
But my parents were not very technical and kept most of the photos as photoshop project files.
Idk if project files that old will open in newer versions of photoshop, but I don’t need to worry, bc I can always find a download of that old photoshop elements and open the projects in there.
It’s not as much about daily use as it is about planned (or inevitable) obsolescence.
Everything web based WILL become unusable or change drastically some day.

Why do you think web only is positive? 15 years from now, will this site still be up? Will you be able to open your projects from today, then? I think web only is a really compelling way to get someone to try a product, but I’d much rather install a tool like this. Unless you could host the site yourself, of course.
Web only does bring with it the notion of web scale rendering. Cloud render farms are already a thing, so it would be a compelling feature. Lots of video acquisition is already cloud based, so the footage is already there. There are still plenty of times where the render stage takes enough time that rendering on my local single machine is not pleasant.
I believe blender can do this, for example.
Nothing web specific about it.

Honestly there’s 2 situations: - if the tool is updated continuously for 15 years it’ll still be up - if it’s not updated, it will be technically irrelevant anyway and you’ll have switched to another tool by then Future support is overrated for tools, just use one now and worry about tomorrow later.

One day, potentially out of nowhere, web based tools can just vanish.
Imagine you were working on a film school senior project and poof your video editing tool was just gone!
Even if they gave a week’s notice, that wouldn’t be enough.
That can’t happen with something like Sony Vegas.

yeah i'm gonna need a TLDR of the major moving parts. how do you even do video editing in the browser? is there a "ffmpeg in the browser"? is that the basic building block?
We've been working on the Web Codecs API for a few years now. It only handles encoding and decoding media codecs, ffmpeg does much more (container handling, filters and everything needed really). Web Codecs can take a compressed media packet and get you the decoded image or audio buffer it corresponds to. Conversely it can take audio or images with timestamps and get you a series of encoded media packets you can then…
