I've been using this plugin for a while, but the rich text support never worked in the widget.
Also, there seems to be a 10-15 second delay when hitting post to submit a status.
Had the issue in both 4.2 and 4.3.
I've attached 2 screenshots: the way it shows up in the widget and the way it shows up when I click the date to view a single status update.
Any idea what might cause this?
