How to remove double spacing in the footer? (Blackened Pro skin)

I found options to edit the area in the Admin CP under Appearance > Styles > [Darkened - Style Properties] > Footer but there doesn't seem to be any way to change it to single spacing.

I think you're referring to the padding going on here.

You can add this to extra.less:

.p-footer-custom .xb-footer-block .pairs {
    padding: 5px 0;
}
.p-footer-custom .xb-footer-block ul.footerList li {
    margin: 0;
}

The first bit is for the pairs, (forum stats), the second bit is for the links.

Thanks. I was using Gemini and ChatGPT to try to figure it out and wasn't having a ton of luck. I gave Gemini your css and told it to make a few changes when the spacing was still too far apart for my tastes and I decided I didn't like the links being grey. It gave me this to put in extra.less:

/* PixelExit Extended Footer - True Single Spacing & Global Link Styling */

/* 1. Forum Statistics: Collapse padding and force tight line height */
.p-footer-custom .xb-footer-block .pairs {
    padding: 0 !important;
    line-height: 1.2 !important;
}

/* 2. Footer Links: Single spacing + match forum link style & color */
.p-footer-custom .xb-footer-block ul.footerList li {
    margin: 0 !important;
    line-height: 1.2 !important;
    
    a {
        padding-top: 1px !important;
        padding-bottom: 1px !important;
        line-height: 1.2 !important;
        color: @xf-linkColor !important;
        text-decoration: none;

        &:hover {
            color: @xf-linkColor--hover !important;
            text-decoration: underline;
        }
    }
}

I don't know exactly what all that's doing and whether it's bloated code or not but it works.

If the end result is what you want, it's fine. Lots of !important tags but Gemini tends to do that sometimes. Not a big deal though.
