In my case I'm working with very large uncompressed video. Files that are 1 hour and 300+ GB in size. I tried using Kdenlive but it choked.

I'm not saying the CLI is easy to learn, but once you do learn it, you have a lot of power at your fingertips.

Well if you do want to do any notable editing, it should be easy to make proxy videos to solve that problem. A few clicks to enable, even.
