I do, yes, or anyhow not looking different for the sake of looking different. Fancy fonts get in the way of melding my mind to the author's.
I do like my eBooks to look the same. I like a clean look, not one of these sloppy looks. To me, sloppy is too much space wasted for charpter headers, wide margins, line-height set in CSS, paragraph spaces or any size (eve .2em is sloppy), small text size instead of the default for the main text, offset text in a smaller font size, chapter headers used as links to the internal ToC, embedded fonts that do not work and/or do not work, graphics used instead of tables for columned text, graphics used instead of other characters, don't use a large indent or no indent.

I prefer an eBook that when used on a Kobo can be customized as the user wants. Change the font, change the margins, change the line height, and change the font size. So don't set a L/R margin, don't set a line height, and don't set a font size for the main text.
