Swamp Rat,
Happy to respond. I've not tried Vidcutter or LosslessCut. On Linux I have Handbrake, Openshot and Blender. Before Linux there were several more. I found avidemux good for simple edits compared with the more featured software and I never felt the need to try other simple applications.
Avidemux works for me because it will maintain the original AV formats and container of the source by simply selecting 'copy' when saving the output. This was important for me because I was working with files generated by a machine which was very restrictive about the formats it would handle and I would often mess up when using the more complex software.
Currently have the appImage version 2.7.6.
My understanding is that AppImages are analogous to a Live CD/USB. They aren't installed in the usual sense so don't create menu icons - indeed they aren't supposed to touch anything on your system other than occupy disk space. They run on demand by double clicking on the appimage file. If it doesn't do what you want, you can delete the appImage file and it is gone.
Hope this helps.
