Yes, I hate when people use tabs instead of spaces -- but I also hate
when people use spaces instead of tabs.

They work fine together if you only tab where you want tabs and only
space where you want spaces.  (Hint: spaces are character-sized, and
tabs are tab-sized.)

int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
        printf("like this: %s\n",
               "spaces");
        exit(0);
}

That works wonderfully with any tab size.
