Hey Fabian, Try the three dots menu on the right side of a cell. The "Delete" button should be first on the list.

Can I ask that you reread my question? I'm aware of the menu entry.

Oh. I didn't realize you meant a keyboard shortcut.

Right now I have to individually go into the menu for any cell that I want to clean up (afaik there's not bulk action either), which feels ... unnecessary?

No keyboard shortcut, I'm afraid. Good thinking though.

If you want to stay within the keyboard, you can use CTRL/CMD+K to open the command menu. There's an option in there to delete the cell.

Appreciate it! (I've been spoiled by Observable 🙃)

I've been spoiled by getting left on the counter for a few days. What am I?

Given the theme I'd have to guess "rotten egg", but that might not be what you've been aiming for

I was thinking curdled milk. Believe it or not, eggs actually do fine on the counter for about a week if they weren't washed before getting shipped out.
