Those images seem to have the same font (might be the resolution/compression) but I just went to twitter.com and I saw immediately the difference.

And I'm not even a big user, I visit like once a week for 10 min. I guess it's even more obvious for people who use it all day long.

I wouldn't say it's better or worst, it's probably just a matter to get used to it.

Check the g, the size of the upper section of the B, the width of the o, the comma...

The fonts are completely different.
