If I could only get everyone who works on the thing I work on to use a whitespace visualizer, it would be enough. We can fight about tabs or spaces after we get rid of all the unnecessary trailing ones.
You've a .editorconfig in your repo right? Right?
In case folks aren't aware, https://editorconfig.org/
I'm glad someone linked this. Should be further up in this thread.
I created a tool for removing trailing whitespace across the whole project. After cleanup now it's at least only a matter of pointing it out in reviews and occasionally fixing landed sources.
