Comparing usability/stability of premiere against anything is kind of putting your finger on the scale lol
Right, but it is the SOTA and the sort of poster boy of everything kdenlive competes with.

#82Kdenlive hits the perfect sweet spot for me. It's much more capable than basic editors like iMovie, but doesn't have the overwhelming learning curve (or steep hardware requirements) of DaVinci Resolve. Like others have mentioned, pairing it with OBS for screen recording and Audacity for audio makes for an incredibly powerful, 100% FOSS media creation stack. It's amazing to see how far open-source video editing has co…
Be careful with any serious project, this software most certainly will crash and destroy your work. It crashes since many years and developers do not seem to care or are not able to understand how important stability for media creation software really is. Especially small and independent artists should absolutely avoid any software that introduces additional risk of project failure as one such crash scenario at an ad…
Meanwhile resolve is fantastic and it's free.

Based on your comment I guess you have never used Premiere Pro (and never learned ctrl + s)

Arguments like this are much more compelling if you cite specifics rather than giving us your own conclusions.
Kdenlive being crash prone is a known thing, but for the parent to say the devs don't care goes too far.

This argument would be a lot more convincing if you linked to issues or something.
The parent does not want (or claims) to produce a report on Kdenlive's reliability or lack thereof. He merely comments on it. Those interested either already know (and agree or disagree) or can find out with a test run.

Some very talented engineers work at Microsoft, that much is clear. Whether any of them work on the new parts of Windows 11 is less clear...
AI will vibecode it to Windows Vista quality!

Is it? I'd say in the higher end that would be Media Composer.

I would suggest a self contained version on stable distros or running on a rolling release whichever is practical.left to take advantage of said improvements.
I would also suggest that performance under Windows may be less tested. I personally wouldn't use it there.
