Any good open source video editor for Windows? Top google results include https://www.openshot.org/ and https://shotcut.org/, but both don't have obvious links to the code repositories and it took me a while to find them which is often not a good sign.

kdenlive is cross platform, provides a windows build and is a very competent video editor. https://kdenlive.org/en/

It's the best one that I've found for Windows, despite the somewhat infrequent crashes.

I’m pretty happy with kdenlive, too.

You might want to try out the one build into Blender: https://www.blender.org/features/video-editing/

Is not a sign of dark patterns if that is what you think.

There is a popular prejudgement (IMHO fact based) that artists are picky so FLOSS tools for artists often try to communicate secondarily that is FLOSS and where is being developed.

For "picky" I mean statements like "is not photoshop", "is not premiere" and if you go to Adobe sites there are no links to code repositories. This projects try to sell themselves similarilly. (hope I made myself clear)

No, they are all years behind. Resolve is free, save your time and use what is used by pros around the globe.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

The github link for shotcut is just on the downloads page. I don't find that particularly egregious?

So is OpenShot. It's a weird thing to complain about.

I just used openshot for a project. It wasn't terrible, ran into one bug where I think it saved over my project without me hitting save but can't be sure. Clunky UI meant I accidentally overwrote some of what I was doing but it didn't take long to fix.
