Please check on the Tools -> AutoCorrect -> AutoCorrect Options dialog for the 'Localized Options' panel. Look at the 'Start quote' and 'End quote' settings--this is set per user locale to appropriate localized defaults, but can be customized. May have happened, or you can customize as you prefer to your needs.
Indeed, version 7.0 made improvement for certain locales to use more appropriate quotation marks according to local language rules, see [1] for details. So your problem is likely writing English in a non-English locale, and therefore getting non-English autocorrect rules applied. If that's not the case, and you believe you are using the correct locale, then in addition to changing the autocorrect rules for yourself, there may be a bug needs fixing as well. Please provide the version information in "About > LibreOffice" dialog (there is a button that copies all the needed text into clipboard). 1. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/7.0#AutoCorrect
