Is putting a space in a directory name still a big deal? I’ve been doing some reading, but all the articles are from the early 2000s. Is it a problem now?

For those who don’t get what I mean: public_html/space directory/index.html

If this is still an issue, why shouldn’t I use spaces when naming files and directories?

    Spaces in URLs are still special characters that need to be escaped or encoded (either a + or %20).
