it would been nice if there was a version that had bugfixes and only that, no new features that can break everything
like this
- Shotcut 16.12 (will only receive backported bug fixes and only that)
- Shotcut 17.00 and newer (new features and bug fixes)
next year it can be like
- Shotcut 17.12 (only bugfixes)
- Shotcut 18.00 or newer (new features and bug fixes)
Much like ubuntu does with their lts releases,
Ive used shotcut around a week now and am surprised this is by far the best editor, but i have a bunch of issues like really slow import of .jpeg files (60 5k jpeg = 60min!) opening a project with said files takes forever to load (taskmgr says it not responding but it does load after waiting a while)
