From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Would you mind rereading your first sentence?
Random? 17 years ago?
What's the issue here?
17 years is prehistory in IT years. Basing your comments on experiences from nearly 2 decades ago is just plain useless
Did you stop reading his comment after that sentence?
That was just giving context to my limited experience with video editors.
If you read further you'll see I talk about using CS6, and finally, most recently, kdenlive.
