Tabs for indent, spaces for alignment. This is the way, I can't believe people are still fighting that ?
I used to think this way, at least when writing C++. But it's objectively harder to do and convince other people to follow, especially if they can't be bothered to change their environment to display tabs and spaces differently. It's a losing battle so now I just do spaces when working with other people
Always do spaces, because you can never trust how someone else has their tab configured.
How is this even a debate anymore. I thought we all agreed on this years ago.
Why on earth would I care how someone else has their editor configured? It's none of my business, and none of yours either.
