Notes app folders won't stay collapsed on Mac

Notes app on mac - folders won't stay collapsed even if I close them before quitting the app. Is there any way around that?

This seems to be a know bug in macOS Tahoe. Someone even created a shortcut/script to deal with it: https://github.com/alex-mikhailov-design/apple-notes-collapse-all-folders.

I don't know if the issue is fixed in macOS Golden Gate.
