RipClip vs CapCut
In short: CapCut is a general video editor on every device, with a very large library of templates and effects and a free tier. Its long-video tool cuts by duration or scene from files and cloud drives. RipClip starts from the stream: paste a Kick or Twitch link and it finds the moments, then you finish them in its editor and schedule them from one calendar. Choose CapCut for templates and editing on your phone; choose RipClip to get clips out of long streams and post them.
