Looking for #datasovereign #video #editing tools to make smartphone video shorts available for online "content" about #optout and #reclaimtech including captioning.

The workflow looks tremendous and like there are few options without feeding a company's servers/AI/databanks/facial-recognition-learning-systems so I will just say up front what I'd prefer:

- FOSS or other ethical tech (small EU-based businesses under GDPR ok)
- Smartphone if at all possible: .APK or SFOS preferred, iOS is doable
- If necessary, PC tools using Debian flavors of Linux (ubuntu, raspbian), or MacOS
- #noai unless running STT or caption burning models locally, on the box

( i.e. @emilymbender and @mystery_ai_hype_theater what do you use? )

@cyberlyra Blender has a pretty good video editor and is FOSS and noAI, but I have no idea if it fits your workflow for shorts. Worth a try though, imho!

@ekapros Blender, wow, my partner uses that as a professional VFX artist - is it usable for mere mortals too?

@cyberlyra If you plan to do simple editing to make shorts, I think you can safely ignore 3D-specific features. Splicing looks like on any other software, to be honest! But I would watch a tutorial first before installing it to see if it fits the workflow, because you cannot install just the video editor, it installs all Blender.

@cyberlyra For video editing I have used Shotcut and for motion graphics I have used Synfig. For the latter, I want to look at Friction 2D at some point. Looks promising.
