In your opinion, which distro should I try to edit videos stably? - eviltoast

I’m feeling more tired about Windows, and the reason I haven’t switched yet to Linux is because I need some programs that only exist on Windows. But, at this point, I’m focusing on ditching these programs and finding alternatives for them…

Last year, I experienced Linux Mint, but, at least on my PC, it feels clunky when I need to do some little video editions and I found it more stable on Windows.

However, I’m going to try again Linux distros with a virtual box, but I’m a little “”“scared”“” to move on again to Linux Mint since my last experience with editing videos.

I don’t need an extremely powerful program to make these editions. Olive, or something like that, suits me perfectly. So, in your opinion, which distro should I try on one virtual box for my daily use for these purposes?

Making a dual boot, from your point of view, is problematic? I see so many different opinions about dual boot, but at this time, I don’t know what to think.

My pc

  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 2100GE with Radeon veja graphics

  • RAM: 8gb

    The most stable linux video editor is KdenLive, along possibly Shotcut. The distro doesn’t matter much, as long as its underlying video libraries it ships with are stable versions. Most often, it’s these libraries that crash, and not the editor on top. If these two programs don’t work for you, I suggest you stay with Windows and use CapCut.

    Olive is very ustable.
