The TikTok ban includes CapCut. A WHOLE GENERATION of new storytellers under 18 use that for editing in animation, film, & socials. i work with underprivileged kids to make shorts: they didn’t know industry standard programs — cause they cost a TON both in hardware & software — they all used CapCut.

1. tiktok ban is a trump thing, he started it
2. the company behind the app knew of these extra repercussions and INTENTIONALLY DID NOT TELL YOU ABOUT THEM so that they could weaponize your outrage
3. the government was not unclear that affiliated apps would be affected and DID warn you
The free version was pretty solid when I started.
Another one is: Kinemaster.
Put on yer caps, fellows, and go to the lands of treasure. 🏴☠️
