OpenShot 3.5 has been released, touted by its developers as one of the biggest updates in the app's 18-year history. Key changes include a new default timeline with a keyframe panel, up to 35% faster effect and frame processing, universal masking support for video effects, a new Chroma key effect, improved audio transitions, smaller export file sizes with better GPU acceleration, and experimental ComfyUI integration for AI workflows. The author notes skepticism about the performance claims, pointing out that every recent OpenShot release has made similar boasts, and recommends Kdenlive and Shotcut as more reliable open-source alternatives. Installation instructions for Ubuntu via PPA are provided.
