Describe the bug

Description:
This issue was previously discussed on Discord and is being reported here for backlog tracking.

The bug occurs specifically when a user has set the Default Mode to Edit (instead of View) in their User Preferences.

Observed Behavior:
Upon opening a note, the toolbar "blinks" or flickers. Looking at the slow-motion capture, we can see that the toolbar momentarily switches to its "Edit" state (showing the Cancel and Save buttons) for a very brief period before stabilizing.

Visual Illustration:
Mobile navigation:

Slow motion detail:

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set "Default Mode" to "Edit" in User Preferences.
  2. Open any note.
  3. Observe the toolbar (containing the note name, folder, save/edit buttons, and formatting options).
