How about DaVinci Resolve from BlackMagic? https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve

Blender will get there eventually, by which I mean in 10 years, but it will. They have the clear foundations going in place today.

What about Natron?

Extremely rare. I've used it but no agency in London would allow you to work with it, they need copies of the files for later. AE is just the standard.
