I used to edit my family and vacation videos with Premiere too, but honestly found it a bit overwhelming since I’m not super technical. These days, I stick with simpler editors that don’t take forever to learn, especially if I just want to cut clips, add music, or throw on subtitles quick.
If you’re just starting or want something more beginner-friendly, movavi is easy to use and has a ton of effects and AI tools for captions and stuff. I switched to it mostly for speed and haven’t looked back.
