Have you noticed anything different about your Facebook account today?Foreign Archives No? Squint and look just a little closer.
Based on a scattering of tweets, Facebook appears to be testing out new fonts across its platform. And like Geneva, the font that the social media giant began trying out last year, the new fonts are not a Facebook creation. Rather, if speculation across Twitter is correct, the company is now playing with having fonts default to users' system fonts.

If you're using Windows, you might now see those same messages in Segoe UI.

One justification could be making the Facebook site feel more native on a user's computer. In other words, by keeping the Facebook font the same as the computer font someone browsing the 'Book might feel a bit more at ease — thus keeping those precious eyeballs on the site just a little longer.
That, of course, is speculation. However, one thing is not: Facebook is finally testing a change that is more than just another Snapchat ripoff.
