Notes Synching problem in Macbook Catalina

In my home network, I have one Macbook M1 running Ventura, an iPhone 14, and another Macbook 2012 running Catalina. I updated my NOTES (I have more than 400 notes) in my Macbook M1 Ventura, and noticed that my legacy Macbook running Catalina only Sync 357 Notes. I have stopped synching NTES from my iCloud account ON and OFF, but always Sync 457 and not my entire Notes stored in my iCloud.

My phone is OK and sees all the notes but not the Macbook Catalina.

I even reinstalled the OS (Catalina), and the same problem occurred, I am not sure if this is a limitation, but I can't find anything online that explains this behavior.

The strange aspect is that only SYNC 357 notes.

Thank you, and I hope someone knows what's going on.

Regards

Troubleshooting Syncing Notes:

Start Here: If you're Missing Notes on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Sync Through iCloud:

Look in iCloud settings or preferences on each device, and make sure that Notes is enabled. If it is, then disable Notes, and then enable Notes. See what happens when you open them on that device.

Opps Sorry, I found the issue—notes with tags and not supported in Catalina. So the action is to remove the tags from the notes you want to share across all your devices.
