At my last job, a bunch of the older folks did not realize they had a "two spaces" habit.

It's a clear tell.

Saw this meme and thought I'd point that out.

That's incredibly unusual, then.

Connect doesn't either. You sure it's unusual?

I'm learning apparently it isn't for Lemmy apps, which must have a habit of not using standard HTML renderers-- which seems like reinventing the wheel to me, but what do I know.

I would say every modern browser on Earth does this, but modern doesn't enter into it. Condensing whitespace in rendered web content has been consistent since the 90's.

Boost is another that does not condense them.
