I don't use Twitter much but can see why regulars are moaning, the font was fine before why did they decide to change it its awful.
Twitter's new font, Chirp, is apparently giving some users headaches
Twitter changes Twitter, and Twitter users complain on Twitter.
Does Chirp make you feel like a woodpecker is pounding on your skull?
Change is never easy, and Twitter users aren't afraid to complain. Those two truisms combined on Wednesday when Twitter unveiled a new design that included a new font, called Chirp, and higher-contrast colors. Almost immediately, users began to complain -- with many saying the new font gave them headaches. (This writer is getting them too.)
A Twitter spokesperson told me, "We tested the font and found that while it does take people a little time to get used to it, overall they like the change. We're listening to feedback about the font and will continue to improve it."
