i fixed the question. for people who do so, is it because your native language does so, like french? or is it because of stylistic choice?
like “hello ! how are you ?” i know a polish speaker who does that

And some people dodn’t use a space at all!They type like this.Argh.
Or they use commas instead of full stops for ellipses,
Apparently there was some school of teaching for a while, where the teachers were emphasizing getting your ideas down on paper quickly, without regard for spelling, spacing, paragraph-ing, punctuation, verb tense, etc. I ran across it when I was trying to find out why there was this generation of fanfic writers who had interesting concepts but couldn’t write to any kind of standard - and who were extremely resistant to any suggestions. Some of the concepts sounded really interesting, too, but it was entirely too much work to try to parse the story.
oh my gosh, i’ve seen that!! i wonder why 🤔
I have fought the urge to do that many times. For me, it feels a bit softer than the ellipses. But i try to restrain myself lol
