Simplenote in Debian 12 Bookworm

For anyone else having this problem adding the --in-process-gpu switch helped. Got the idea from this Stackoverflow answer.

[rcentros]

That fixed it for me in the terminal. Couldn't get it to work when adding --in-process-gpu to the Menu entry however -- so I couldn't move it to my Panel. But I found a workaround. I just made a small bash script named "simple"...
#!/bash/bin
/opt/Simplenote/simplenote --in-process-gpu &
exit
Make the shell script executable then run it from the terminal as "source simple" or ". ./simple" and it will close the terminal once Simplenote is up and running.
You can also use the shell script to create a Launcher on the Desktop or in the Menu. I'm using Cinnamon and built mine in the Menu. Just added this to the Launcer's command line... /home/my myusername/simple. Add the Simplenote icon and copy to the Cinnamon Panel by pressing the Control+Alt keys and dragging it there.
So far working without issue.

@rcentros ' suggestion worked for me on Pop!_OS with one small change to the hashbang:

#!/bin/bash
/opt/Simplenote/simplenote --in-process-gpu &
exit

In gnome-destop you can edit /usr/share/applications/simplenote.desktop by adding --in-process-gpu or --disable-gpu-sandbox to the Exec entry before %U.
