It'd be surprising if the Internet revolution didn't drastically alter languages. The printing press did the same, standardizing them and eliminating many font eccentricities that did not translate well into movable type.

What I see in these is (1) shortening of things to make them easier to type on phones, and (2) the use of a lot of whimsical spellings to convey emotion. People are communicating so much right now via just text that they're going to strain to emote through the medium.
