From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For anyone else not knowing what this is, Kdenlive is a Free and Open Source Video Editor. I’ve never used it but it looks like it has a lot of features.
Its one of the big main Open Source Projects of the FOSS world. Which include some big names Linux, GNU, LibreOffice, Blender, Krita/Gimp, etc
Other than Krita (and Kdenlive) I have used all of those. I guess I’ve just never had the need for video editing. If I do in the future I know where to go first!
For beginner and more advanced user, this is the perfect software for video editing. It even has a portable edition and can use it everywhere!
If it has a portable version then I might give it a try. I'm always a fan of portable software.
Yup, super quick to throw a cut together or some basic footage. It won't replace the full adobe suite, but if you want to cut basic videos together it's perfect
It's more powerful than you are giving it credit for.
Plus, it's a bit disingenuous to compare a single program to an entire suite of software.
Kdenlive isn't trying to be After Effects. But neither is is Adobe Premiere.
It's great
