it’s a causal writing style that has become popular online in the last decade or so. don’t overthink it

It's usual in chats, not for formal writing like officially announcing your resignation. At least that's my impression.

Maybe that's why it's used ? Twitter is just addressed to the public, so it's not official in any way, it's just communication. The lowercase casual style is only used to drive empathy probably.

To be fair, that's not a very formal resignation. He just... quit.
