Scoring notes reports only 64 bit MuseScore for Linux
In the Scoring notes product guide, they report that Linux is only available in 64 bit format. I know there are people who switched to Linux Mint when 3.0 was released because they had 32 bit windows systems and wanted to use version 3.x which required 64 bits on windows at the time (for anyone who doesn't know, there is now a 32 bit windows version). Is there something I'm not understanding about how Linux works or is Scoring Notes wrong?

So you don't use an official release but rather a 32 bit nightly build that is not directly from MuseScore?

"Linux (64bit only)" seems correct to me. "macOS 10.12, 12.13, 12,14" though is wrong, should be "10.10 or later"

Yes Jojo. Providing an alternative does not seem to me a bad idea (not everyone has the latest model of pc) so as not to discourage some users.
3.0 was and is available for 64bit and 32bit Windows 7 or later, at least since 3.0.1. (Development builds are indeed 64bit only though and the initial 3.0 and the betas and RCs before that too)
For Linux the MuseScore team provides a 64bit Linux AppImage only, all other versions for Linux are done by some distribution maintainers
