I heard Kdenlive has 30+ developers, meaning it would be a full-time job or
more for
one person to write another video editor as capable as Kdenlive from scratch.
This kind of collaboration makes FOSS programs or of course the whole

One thing about installing cryptsetup by default as a means of starting
