Yep, this was the issue.

(Can also be changed in the normal macOS Keyboard settings under "Text" > "Add Period with double space".

I just failed to notice it when checking there originally <facepalm>

Also, it just never seemed to actually happen in any other app I use currently other than FSNotes so just figured it was specific to the app.
