I have been searching for an answer for this question for too long now. I have tried different hyphenation commands and packages but they don't seem to work.
My problem is that I am writing my text in finnish and LaTeX generates a lot of hyphens in it. Finnish as a language has many long words so you can imagine what the text would look like at its worst. Is it possible to disable hyphenation and use variable space sizes to pad in the rest of the content automatically? Word seems to be capable of this.
I can somewhat live with the hyphenation, but I can't help but wonder that there should be an easy solution for a problem like this. I am currently using the following packages:
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[finnish]{babel}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{hyperref}
EDIT: I will make a clarification: I do not mind if the generated spaces have big differences between them. I just want a way to replace the hyphens with variable space size without making major modification to the text.

. other option is use\raggedright
command on the beginning of text (then text in not aligned an the right side anymore) – Zarko Feb 10 '18 at 14:04\sloppy
which tells tex to allow a lot more inter-word stretch (and so needs less hyphenation) – David Carlisle Feb 10 '18 at 14:59
