Kdenlive
Kdenlive is likely your best bet. Even if u have issues here and there, in the long term you’ll be happy you stuck with it. It has very active development and is shaping up to be the most used foss video editor.
Youtube is full of Kdenlive tutorials. Within 1 hour of learning you’ll know the basics use of it. It is easy if you’re willing to start with tutorials since it is different from other video editing softwares.
Do not use openshot. Really bad bugs that will make it impossible to export your project and make all your time working with it wasted. Use kdenlive instead
Kdenlive is the best IMO and pretty easy as well I guess.
The most noob video editor in PiTiVi, but it’s not as stable as kdenlive (which is much, much more complex, but also more powerful).
Friend of mine uses Shotcut https://shotcut.org

I used to use Cinelerra back in the day. It’s a non-linear editor like Premiere. If I could figure it out with YouTube more than a decade ago, it shouldn’t be too hard.
I started with OpenShot Video Editor for it’s ease of use in being able to cut parts of a clip out. But it was very slow, and now I’d reccommend Kdenlive.
I don’t know, but I wouldn’t recommend OpenShot because it just gets really laggy when adjusting the timeline, and it lacks certain workflow features that you’d just expect mature video editing software to have (like the ability to move or delete keyframes)

It has no Linux client.

Shotcut
You can try with GNU Emacs, looks easy: https://redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=F6HSf5D6TtA
Emacs really can do anything huh
i think LosslessCut is good https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut
I found kdenlive terrible. DaVinci Resolve is much better, but it’s closed source and has some limitations in terms of hardware encoding support (nvidia only).
DaVinci is a great piece of software, but is VERY limited on Linux. The lack of mp4 support in the free version is enough to not recommend it for a newbie.
