In the great tabs v spaces debate I am pro spaces.

However context is important. In Obsidian I can't press shift+space to unindent, I can do this with shift+tab. So in Obsidian I use tabs.

I don't intend to access these files outside of Obsidian 99% of the time, so I never bothered to flip on the setting that inserts spaces when you use the tab key.
