I started editing this video in Resolve and this is the first time I went back to Kdenlive. It's truly gotten so much better. Years ago it just crashed a lot and once even corrupted my save file.

The current version is amazingly fluid. Some of the updates in Resolve has made their timeline clunkier, or maybe it's just been so long I've forgotten how their UI works. The free version of Resolve also can't handle a lot of the codecs using in my recording gear, where Kdenlive can handle them or offers to automatically transcodes them on import.

If you edit video and haven't tried Kdenlive in a while, give it another shot. It's one less thing I need a windows or mac box for.

@djsumdog Have you tried Blender's video editor? For a while, I've heard it was Linux's only good video editor.

A long time ago and I remember the UI being amazingly frustrating. Not sure if it's gotten any better. Kdenlive feels like most other editors I've used (FinalCut, Resolve) and almost anything I wanted to do I could find with one or two documentation lookups.
