Been messing around with Shotcut for about three weeks now, and I'm lowkey impressed—it's way smoother than the old Windows Movie Maker I used to limp by with. The timeline editing feels natural, the filters are decent, and the fact it's free is a huge win for me. Solid 5/5, honestly.
Been using Shotcut for a few weeks for simple YouTube edits, but the timeline freezes on me constantly when I try anything over a couple minutes. It's free, but the constant crashes make it hard to recommend.
Been using Shotcut for about six months now, mainly for editing short videos. The interface is a bit confusing at first, and exporting your work can be frustratingly slow.
