I'm glad there are tools out there which are nerf'd up for the beginners. I remember being able to actually have fun getting things done in fruity loops or rebirth. I remember using logic back when I started 20-something years ago and had no idea baout how MIDI worked. However, I work with a lot of non-professionals and they love these tools. These apps feel like trying to drive a car with an iPhone app. It's like the CLI: I already know exactly what I want to do, and I have an understanding of how the computer is going to deal with it. I can't get a damn thing done in GB and I've tried several times. I also share your frustration with iMovie and garageband. It's great to be able to pick ups something like Davinci Resolve and just know what I can do and find the 10 keyboard shortcuts I want and then get to work, just because I learned Ae and Premiere a decade and a half ago. I started in Sony Vegas back around the turn of the century and share your enjoyment of the standardized UI paradigms of professional software.
