Inconsistency between serif and sans-serif

[GPhMorin]

Let us use the following screenshot as a reference:

Notice that text in the side banner is in serif, while the same text in the profile banner is in sans-serif. "Compose a new notice…" on the left is in serif, but clicking in the box and typing in it results in sans-serif text. The stream of messages are all in sans-serif, but the "Notices / Mentions / Favorites" are in serif.

That is what I consider as inconsistency.

I checked Diaspora, Facebook, Twitter and Google+. Conclusion: serif is nowhere to be found.

Sans-serif has become kind of a standard for the Web because of its cleaner and more legible appearance on computer displays. Nowadays, we're seeing a resurgence of serif particularly in eBook readers, but that is mainly because of the new Retina displays and of serif's "book appeal". For most of us, and particularly on a modern-looking social network, sans-serif is way preferable.
