@s.starck after a typed word the space behind a comma, ! or ? was held back and only appeared once you started the next word, so it looked like nothing happened. In the next App Store update it goes in right away. For the full stop there's a new switch, Space after full stop (under Spacing & punctuation), off by default because it would split web addresses and file names like example.com.

Currently the behaviour is inconsistent, depending on how you type the question mark.
Me? you? Typed from symbols page → space gets inserted
Me?you? Long press period key
Me?you? Glide selected from symbols page
Me?you? Long press v key
Me? You? Space typed out explicitly → sentence initial capitalization takes effect
I don't like spaces being inserted where I didn't type them. To avoid having settings for every single miniscule thing, should this behaviour maybe be tied to whether you have autocorrect on or off?
Reminds me of #B70
