Webfonts, when not blocked by any of the privacy protection add ons I use, or DejaVu 16 for Sans and Serif and DejaVu 12 for Mono.

What font do you use and why this question?

I'm currently using the default DejaVu fonts.

I used Firefox earlier and jumped on the Chrome bandwagon when it became popular. I just made a switch back from Chrome to Firefox and it feels a lot faster than Chrome.

I have installed Microsoft fonts on my Ubuntu and Chrome uses these fonts. Now, I'm trying to make Firefox use the same fonts but I don't seem to figure out the font names for Serif, Sans-serif, and Monospace.

I'll add these details to my question.

The DejaVu font family has a DejaVu Sans, a DejaVu Serif and a DejaVu Mono. You should see them listed in Settings, Font, in the font selector of LibreOffice Writer and obviously in Firefox, where you pick a font in the settings.

dpkg -l tells me that I've got installed fonts-dejavu, fonts-dejavu-core and fonts-dejavu-extra.
