Why the fuck are there so many spaces between your sentences?

I am not seeing a problem so I suspect its an elder millenial/xennial thing?

Other possibility is I am on piefed, you are lemmy, and the formatting has gotten bjorked between them?

edit: I am curious now, can you send me a screenshot?

I am on lemmy, using the Sync app, but this is only showing this way for your posts. It doesn't seem consistent, some look to be double spaced, others 4-6 spaces

[–] DevDave@piefed.social 2 points 2 hours ago

This is fascinating. Most of those are indeed elder millennial double spaces after the punctuation but the inconsistency is odd. Also I don't see them on my computer.

I don't see the spaces, I'm in a browser rn
