Or config tab to equal spaces?

2 or 4?

Always tabs.

I loathe the space bar and find it very jarring. All the other keys are so rhythmic while I type away, but that stupid space bar always sounds like I just knocked the kettle drums over onto the entire wind section.

I got another one for you OP:

Right click or double click?

I do tabs but make them equal the spaces required by the linter :). @Jamais Vu I'm on a mac so I have to do the right-click if I understand your question. I loathe touchbars

My bad.

I sometimes forget that is kind of a dated and very Windows specific, but even with the option, I have always chosen to right click icons to open the menu rather than double click to quickly open the program.

I always figured that one little choice probably defines a lot of personality traits, but never took enough psychology classes to be able to convincingly back that theory up.

they've made an entire UI/UX industry out of it, lol. fun fact -- if you double-click an app on Mac OS that you download from an app with an 'untrusted developer' (or 'unidentified developer' -- I always forget), it won't let you open it. If you right-click it, it will give you the option to 'open anyway'.
