I've tried many of them and I keep turning to kdenlive, both on linux (my main driver) and windows. I've been using it for years, although occasionally. From my perspective it's the best FOSS NLE out there both in terms of features and stability. For the occasional user it gets the job done. Kdenlive used to crash a lot years ago but I'm not having any issue at all in the last couple of years (while Clipchamp, promoted by MS, crashes all the time).

Kdenlive has been my choice too, despite the fact that I am a GNOME user and find the UI a little strange. I've really tried to like Openshot but it isn't really up to the job.

People sometimes suggest Blender, which is of course high quality software, but most people reaching for a video editor benefit from a tool with fewer options that is more aimed at basic use cases.
