Good news!
Even though the Fourthwall editor keeps things minimal, most of the power is still there, hidden behind keyboard shortcuts. And they're the same ones used in TinyMCE, the editor behind the curtain.

These shortcuts are your creative toolkit. Lean into them.

If you're writing regular updates, bonus content, or exclusive guides, these keystrokes make your workflow faster and sharper.
