i thought this question could fit here as this is a community about open source software after all, anyways.. i was gonna do editing for the first time and wanted to use something that's free and open source, i was considering either shotcut or kdenlive but i wanted to at least hear the community's opinion about it, i'll be waiting for the replies. thanks

Personally I think Kdenlive has the most user-friendly interface of any video- editor (pay software included) so I think it's ideal for a newcomer. It's also fairly light on system resource comparatively.

A few years ago, it used to have a reputation for being a bit buggy but seems to be very stable in my experience these days.

The main problem would be the lack of guides/tutorials, though there are a few on YouTube.
