Before installing Linux, I had originally planned to dual-boot on my main PC, but somehow a gaming rig from 5 years ago isn’t good enough to run windows 11, which is ridiculous.

    Video editing is still a hurdle for me, sometimes I do some shitposts but want to add sparkles and some effects. There’s Davinci and it’s fucking great but I can’t afford the paywalled version (even less if I’m gonna use something once or twice), it doesn’t have things like copilot for quick default effects. Also it doesn’t renderize things that are outside the usual/common video sizes.
    Kdenlive works for some basic video editing, but it feels too convoluted just for some basic editing.

    I end up booting Windows and going to after effects anyway.

      I thought that for a while myself … then I started editing things with simple cuts and very few effects. They did build an entire movie industry for most of the 20th century on editing equipment that was no more complex than simple cutting and splicing.

      If you want a more simple video editing package you could give OpenShot a try.
