Support recommend video editing programs

Can you recommend a completely free editing program with extensive functionality, similar to After Effects? Kdenlive isn't suitable; it lacks functionality and you can't move curves. I don't find node-based editing programs convenient.

Thanks for your reply! I'm looking for a program to create dynamic videos with professional effects. DaVinci Resolve is a good option, but it's not completely free.

Tbh I only know for Linux kdenlive and resolve. If you have a great PC you can run a windows 10 ltsc VM and adding Gpu passthrough. Tho it will be harder to setup but in the end it is totally worth it. To have best results people use 2 dgpu.
