Tabs let you define how big you want each indent to be

…except when they don’t. Many common environments have a hardcoded tab size of 8, which is insanely big for using it for indentation.

Because other people might have restricted environment which might not suit their preference is not a good reason to level it down IMO.

Also, I think 9 is the best size for indent (matter of preference), do you think I should switch to space so everyone can enjoy this wonderful view I have ?

It’s not just “might”. Termux is pretty much the only good choice for programming on Android.

I think you should switch to an exorcist.

What’s your point ? You can use vim on termux and set the tabsize to whatever you want for example.
Yes, but if you use something like cat, head, less, etc. to view the code, or the Python REPL, you’re still going to see the defnult tab size.
You can set the tabstop with less -x*n*. But ok I see what you mean. I still stand by my point though. If termux doesn’t support setting tabstops and it’s an issue, then it’s a bug in termux, not a reason to level down your formatting standard.
Also :exorcise is only a quick pluginstall away, anyway. /s
