Mobile Enter Key Fix
There is a difference between typing enter and hitting the carriage return on mobile (causing constant format issues). Updating config.edn resolves this:
:shortcuts {
:editor/new-block "enter"
:editor/new-line "shift+enter"
}
;; Optionally:
:shortcut/doc-mode-enter-for-new-block? true
