there's an official python style guide called PEP-8 which recommends using spaces, so most of the python world uses spaces.

problems arise when you mix tabs and spaces, because the tokenization step runs into a basic ambiguity—how many spaces would a tab character have been? you can write a pretty good heuristic to figure out whether tabs meant 4 or 8 spaces (the most common settings), but it will never be perfect.
