as we know capcut is no longer good for free users, any recommendation for open source video editor? i prefer option to export projects so i can archive it to my drive.

    Kdenlive, easily. The only other video editor that feels good to use on Linux is the non-FOSS DaVinci Resolve (which requires paying for you to get any practical codec support).

    Some people say Blender, but those people must not work on very complicated projects…

    For simple cutting & slicing I honestly just write ffmpeg oneliners.

      The only reason to use blender and why blender has one, is CG animation work. It would be silly to have the interface where you do exactly the same thing as in a video editor, except with the timing of animations instead of footage, but not have one for footage as well. Especially if the animation sometimes depends on when which part of the footage plays.

      Rendering, exporting, importing, finding a detail is wrong, is more annoying than having it right there in the same UI.
