Just found out about this guy on YouTube named Nuxttux because I’ve been trying to make some social media videos.

Kdenlive is a completely different beast than the one that I remember using a couple of years ago. It has so much functionality in it, like all the “TikTok effects”, proxy clips, rendering previews, visualizing effect curves between keyframes… like damn. This is actually legit software now for my basic needs.

The thing is, it seems like these were all added in the past 2 years, because I had 23.x installed through the Debian repo and I upgraded through Flatpak to 24.12 and it seems to have added all of these?

Anyway holy shit. Go give these guys some money. This is game changing

    Davinic is paid but its a one time fee and pretty solid on linux, no issues transitioning for the modst part, some reactor plugins are incompatible like shaderotoys

      DaVinci Resolve also has a free version that’s a fully-featured editor with nothing locked behind a paywall, the benefit from buying the paid version is you get an actual upgrade in functionality over the already-pretty-powerful free version.

      However it’s still a proprietary app so if that bothers you, then KdenLive seems like a good FOSS alternative to that.

        It has plenty of nodes locked behind a paywall like magic mask, they also recentlly locked reactor, the community made plugins, behind a paywall (I still think its worth it, especially if you buy hardware for editing, the studio license comes with it)

          I thought for sure the free version of DR was still a fully-featured suite and didn’t paywall anything ala Adobe, and what you got with the paid version was an actual upgrade over an already pretty powerful app.

      (reactor used to be free and would extend it a lot only works on studio now) btw I pirated it, its very easy to do on linux just one reddit post where you copy and paste 3 commands into the terminal after downloading the official studio version from their site, eventually I might buy some hardware from them for around 300 since you get free studio with it.
