Grammarly recently posted this blog with arguments regarding using one space or two after the end of a sentence. Do you agree? What do you use? One space or two? ------------------- You should now only use one space after a period. Why? The most popular reasoning goes as follows. The habit of using two spaces comes from a time when most typewriters used monospaced fonts, which were easier to read with two spaces at the end of a sentence. Nowadays, most fonts on computers are proportional and the extra space doesn’t improve readability. Instead it makes it seem that your text is pocked with holes.
