I am gonna subtweet a bit but uh yeah, apart from Blender, most open source apps for media creation simply do not cut it, and I think recommending them is a disservice to folks if you want to help escort them out of Adobe software.

Dude every time i see that guide its like okay good luck replacing After Effects with literally any of those programs but alright i guess. Id LOVE an alternative but the problem is, it doesnt really exist yet.
Blender is really viable because it successfully embedded itself in its associated industries so companies who made money off of it would invest back, computer hardware manufacturers would provide developers to make sure it ran on their devices, etc.
on the free but not open source side, I think it's pretty amazing we got DaVinci Resolve and TouchDesigner (up to SHD anyway), plus Sunvox, Audacity, so many other audio apps.
