Bug Description
Binary package hint: gwibber
Gwibber uses the system Application Font---the same font used to display menu items, button labels, and so on---to display status messages. IMHO, the same font should not be used for these two purposes. I prefer a smaller font for menu items and the like, which are just short snippets of text, and a larger font for status messages, which can be large blocks. I think the Document Font is a more appropriate choice for status messages. For example, this is the font that Empathy uses to display chat sessions.
