I need to quench my thirst for knowledge and learn something new just for the sake of it.
I’ve already learned:
-
Equations and pivot tables in Excel
-
Vector graphics in Inkscape
-
Music mixing in rekordbox
-
Personal VPN on a raspberry pi 4 with OpenVPN
-
LAMP stack web hosting
-
Streaming & video capture with OBS
-
Manual & automatic backups with FreeFileSync
Things I’m open to:
-
FOSS (even beta) or free-as-in-beer software
-
A high or low learning curve
-
Tools for niche fields that I’d otherwise have no reason to learn


I thought so too. KDEnlive a solid base that is used by many FOSS youtubers akin to Veronica Explains. It’s capable of things up to rotoscoping/chromakey deletion, it also closely resembles how most video editors work, except maybe for trendy node-based tinkering in effects - that would be covered in full by Blender/Godot further down the line. Example project: make a short explanatory vid about one of the tools already learned.
