November "What Editorial Software should I start using" thread. Meant for people figuring out the "base" tools to use.

Shotcut

ShotCut - Linux/Windows/Mac. Lesser features than Kdenlive (e.g not a lot of color-grading effects in comparison). Has a proxy workflow, though it's not as good as Kdenlive either.

Kdenlive

Kdenlive -Open source with proxy workflows. Windows/Linux. Full proxy workflow. Good for low-end computers. Standard color-grading tools. Some features that are locked behind a paywall (in Hitfilm such) as glitch effects and spot removal are available for free. Lacks in VFX/ text tool barebones.

Lossless Cut

Lossless cut is an excellent tool to "snip" out a section of what you downloaded. Shutter does this too, but Lossless is a little easier.
