Lightweight video editing software

Does anyone know some good video editing programs which don't collapse under their own weight while trying to load a video? I just wanna make some short memes and shitposts!

Haven't used it but maybe Kdenlive? Idk about it's quality.

I second Kdenlive. Ive used it for a few short videos I’ve made, and I found it very easy to use.

Kdenlive is totally serviceable for basic meme making. I've used it a few times for quick professional work. Just a little tricky to find documentation for specific stuff.

I've found it can be a little resource intensive - though I only used it for a couple of projects and haven't tried it again!

Yeah, I'm not a meme maker, I just only used like a kapwing style webapp and DaVinci Resolve. Not really applicable software to this post. :D

Thank you! I decided to go with this and the editing goes pretty smoothly so far. There are smaller bumps here and there but at least there is enough tutorials online not to get stuck.

Glad to hear that! Please tell me about it's flaws if you will find any major ones.

I already made my first video with it and it reached its audience :)

Haven't found major issues, only some slight problems but I found an alternative solution easily.
