The full stop feels way more serious to me, like an accusation. It feels like something that your manager might say before pip-ing you. The latter feels way less serious, like a friend about to remind you that you’re meeting up later today so you don’t forget. Periods mean serious. On the other side, lol means light hearted. “I don’t think you’re on top of things lol” is like something a friend would say after I lay out my elaborate plan that misses something totally obvious
I think millennials don’t like to do a hard stop at the end of sentences. It feels overly harsh* or something, so I’ve heard, lol.
