The commenters often tell me I must be using a Mac or a Windows PC for video editing. Nope! I use three important pieces of free and open source software in order to make these videos, and luckily for me they work great on Linux!
🎞️ Kdenlive for video editing: https://kdenlive.org/ 📹 OBS for footage capture: https://obsproject.com/ 🖌️ Inkscape for thumbnails: https://inkscape.org/
