The reason is explained in the release notes (breaking changes section): https://orgmode.org/Changes.html Org mode now assumes tab width to be 8 characters, when calculating list and other indentation. tab-width is also set to 8 when Org major mode is loaded. This is done to improve consistency of the markup for lists, where indentation affects list items. Users with non-default values of tab-width should avoid overriding the value of 8 set by Org mode. If the custom tab-width value is smaller than 8, the existing Org documents can be converted to the new standard tab width using the following helper command: ... ... I understand that this breaking change is annoying, but it was done as one of the steps to make Org syntax consistent across Emacs configurations and outside Emacs. That's a principle direction we want to go into. Not a bug. Canceled. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
