OpenCut: The So-Called Open Source CapCut Alternative Is Now an Empty Shell
dotey · x · 2026-07-18

Additionally, an early, semi-finished code repository for the project has been archived and is no longer being updated. Developers looking for open source video editing tools should steer clear of this one.
