use whatever software/hardware you prefer,,,,,,,,,, after a short run with free software I jumped on Adobe suite, mainly because I realized that video editing will stick around & even intensify for me,,,,,, Photoshop comes with the package & its good for youtube/IG/facebook thumbnail design/////////// both were a pain to learn as with any software of comparable difficulty/capabilities ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, love premiere because you can customize your whole work panel,,this window smaller,that window longer,close this open that squeeze it there, the list goes on(should make a tutorial 1day) .,..,. ran into this girl software switching video, may not be that useful but she mentions some good things like keyboard shortcuts.,.,.,.,.there are a lot of things that could be done to make the editing process less stressful/easier/faster so more time & energy/mood is left for the hobby itself
