OK that doesn't show here (Firefox on Linux), I actually copied the text into an editor, and searched for double spaces, and none were found.
Tried another Browser Falkon which uses QtWebEngine, and there are no doublespaces there either.
So apparently some browsers render Lemmy posts differently.

Browsers collapse whitespace unless told not to by the webpage CSS. I'm not using a browser though, I'm using Boost for Lemmy.

Ah that explains it. 👍

"Boost for Lemmy" I learned a thing existed today, that I was unaware of yesterday. Thank you for that!
