iMovie for everyone: This free video editor runs in your browser

A good private video editor is hard to find—especially when you want it to work across all of your devices. Yes, there are lots of decent video editors, including Microsoft’s Clipchamp tool and Apple’s iMovie app. But Clipchamp is one of many modern video-editing tools that requires you to sign in with an account and upload your videos to a company’s servers. And iMovie, of course, is limited to working only on Apple’s own products.
