Adding one datapoint here: I made several projects with Shotcut and am glad it exists, but I had to learn to expect a crash and work defensively; That's how often it happened. The most usual crash was while moving clips around, the application died and the window closed, work lost.

I recently used Shotcut and it did crash a few times, but both times it still had my changes after reopening.

Not being used to the concepts of video editing, I found it easy to find a workflow that worked for me (cutting out mistakes and stitching remaining ends).
