< prefers tabs because 1 tab is 1 indentation unit as opposed to 1 space being either half or 1/4 of that.
< prefers spaces because who would want to install Notepad++ just to use it once?

Yeah, but the built-in Windows Notepad sets the tab width to 8 spaces and that’s too wide, and you can’t change it.

< knows some editors can convert between spaces and tabs. < remembers Notepad++ can do that, but <’s not sure.

Mind sharing the theme?

<'s answer is that the very purpose of tabs is to indent things, which makes it rather senseless not to use them. Especially that the reasons not to (e.g. different people use different tab widths which can result in misaligned stuff) are based on bad habits which we should fight rather than accomodate. And anyway, the least would be not to force those habits on other developers, which happens with spaces since the width is therefore hardcoded.
<'s pretty sure that's from the 80s.
As for <'s favourite, while < has some nostalgia for the 90s logo, from an aesthetic standpoint, < doesn't find <self too enamoured with it. < likes the 2003 version, but < wonders if that's more due to the animations they got out of it:

Someone on NeoGAF made their own modern versions of the Ubi swirl and < thinks those look best: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.ph ... tcount=323
Indeed, those logos ^'s shared do look much nicer to <, they keep the shape of the Ubi icon, while having the popular flat look that's all the rage these days.
< somehow doesn't mind that new Ubi logo at all. Although yeah, < prefers the rainbow to either of the newer ones.
< seems to have missed an editor discussion, but < would like to express <'s preference for Vim. < doesn't consider it superior to Emacs, it's just what < is used to.

< suspects the animations would be fairly similar to what they presented in that trailer
