I really want to love Prettier, but I never want to spend the hours googling etc. on how to setup the frickin config files! Especially as someone who works on a wide variety of languages/file types, I really want to find a drop in formatter that works well enough in all situations.

I think you might be thinking of ESLint? Prettier has, like, 10 options, and they are all listed on this page [0], and you aren't required to even have a config file because the defaults make sense.

I personally find ESLint to be a nightmare of configurability and silly defaults.
