  And it should work regardless of whether or not the line is a bullet, list, or text.

  Tab already indents in the context of a bullet or a code block. We are reluctant to introduce it within the note view when no formatting is applied, since tab in that context can currently be used to jump to the note title and back, which is used fairly regularly by me. Would be open to re-considering this if sufficiently good use cases for allowing tab in a standard note can be provided?

  If the Amplenote folks are reluctant to use the Tab key to indent, you could instead create a shortcut on the formatting bar. This approach would avoid contaminating the hot-key mappings.

  I agree with Ben's comment above. We don't specifically need a shortcut key, but paragraph indent (& remove indent) buttons on the formatting toolbox would be great.

  I agree with all the above, a note taking software like this needs in indent feature. (whether that's tab or some other keyboard shortcut). The visual difference in size between H1s and H2s are not enough to tell the difference between sections (imo).
  
  See this example: https://postimg.cc/5QL36nsk
  Upon first glance is it difficult to tell where the two main sections, DLT BASICS and Streaming ETL Patterns with DLT, start and end. Obviously you can spend a second to understand where they do but that is not the point. With an indent feature it would be much easier to visually tell where the sections start and end.
  
  I know this is pretty nitpicky, but I don't believe it would be that hard to implement and would vastly improve mine (and hopefully many others) user experiences'.

  A good use case for the need for an indent feature is poetry, lyrics, recipes, and logic.
