Not to hate, but why are double spaces after a period still a thing? #amediting

Because that’s how I was taught when I learned how to type on a typewriter. Lol. Old habit, that’s all.

I don't use double spaces after a period anymore but that's what I was taught in school in the late 90s / early 00s in elementary/middle school in the States!

Oh totally! That's also why computer (and phone) keyboards letters are laid out the way they are too. It was originally to avoid the typebars jamming.
