In the newspaper industry, whenever there appeared to be a lull in the business, they used to review the design of layout and police changes. And this bug seems to have bite Twitter too, which triggered a font and style style on its platform. And as always on Twitter, the negative comments on that have been volus, but do not really constitute anything.
High contrast and less visual footprint But the first things first, what are the new changes even if they are cosmetic? Well, Twitter launched Chirp, his first owner font. Twitter said: “All the text of the Western language now adds the left, which facilitates the reading of tasks that you scroll. Non-Western languages remain unchanged.” Twitter introduced the Chirp police in January as part of its brand update.
Twitter added that he has updated his colors a high contrast and much less blue. This is done to draw attention to the photos and videos that appear on the chronology.
The microblogging platform, in order to give a cool palette, also plans to add new colors soon.
The new Twitter buttons now a high contrast and the platform also cleaned a lot of visual footprint.
“There are fewer gray backgrounds and unnecessary divider lines. We also increased the space to make the text easier to read,” he said.
The comments have been scathing, but it’s nothing to fear
As it always happens on Twitter any change, the answer was fast and scathing. People leave black humor and snark splashing their deadlines while they destroyed the new police and the new design.
“Ok but someone else is someone else getting a slight head of the Twitter font or me,” said a user of the @Tuxedomakscos handle.
Another user, @lunetsdaya said: “The new Twitter font cured my dependence on this bird application because I can not scroll without having a headache now.”
But we can remember that when Twitter has gone from 140 characters to 280 characters, the popular response was even more fierce and frontal. But after a few days, everything is dead and the 280 character limit has been fully adopted now.
So, Chirp has nothing to fear, after all. It is here to stay until next cycle when Twitter goes for another font change so that users are extremely indignant.
