VNote a great program to write in markdown available to Linux (Like MX Linux 21, antiX 21)

 VNote is a great program, for my is great to write markdown Download VNote 32 bits  See my 32 bits deb build:  https://github.com/wachin/vnote/releases    Note: If you are curious, you will realize that the deb that I compiled is smaller than the ones on the github page of the Chinese developers, this is because VNote can use the dependencies of the Linux operating system, for example: Kdenlive, which is a program huge but because it uses many KDE dependencies, you can see this by looking at its packages:  kdenlive-data  which weighs 9 MB and  kdenlive  which weighs almost 3 MB, the same with the deb I compiled, instead the developers have made it available by integrating many of its dependencies right there to make it work on many (64-bit) Linux, not like the one I have compiled only for Linux based on Debian 11 Bullseye Download VNote 64 bits  On the official page:  https://github.com/vnotex/vnote/releases    As you can...
