Hello,
This is a minor thing, but would nevertheless be nice if an alternative
is available to the default behaviour.
When using the scratch buffer, any ENTER key will throw the
beginning of the current line at column 1. A simple work around is to
enter a whole bunch of line feeds then add text within that zone but,
is it possible to alter this default behaviour so that entering line
feeds will just leave the current line where it is ? This is emacs
26.1.
Cheers.

Turn off electric-indent-mode perhaps?

Or switch to text mode. My *scratch* buffer comes up in
Lisp Interaction Mode, which I think is how/why electric
indent mode comes into play.
