The single or double space between sentences argument has been ongoing for decades. Traditional, pre-digital typesetting required the use of double-spacing after periods and colons. This was largely due to the limitations of now-antiquated technology and was the standard style taught by most schools until around 20 years ago. With the advent of digital printing, the need for double spaces isn’t really a thing, anymore. But a lot of people still adhere to the practice. Even style guides don’t universally agree. The latest editions of the Chicago Manual of Style and MLA both suggest a single space. The APA guidelines currently suggest two spaces, but even they have gone back and forth over the years.
