I see a very big difference
Genuinely struggling to understand the difference here.
Does "No." mean "No. Fuck off and die."?
Whereas "no" means "No, I'm alright thanks"?

yes, exactly that. It softens the message, it's IM etiquette. It can have the same function as an emoji basically.
No problem with capital letters btw because phones tend to do that automatically, the period however is a conscious decision
note I am talking about instant messaging, not forums. Obviously it doesn't come across the same way in this context

at least from my perception, I see a very big difference between a whatsapp message saying
no
and a whatsapp message saying
No.
obviously not referring to when there is more than one sentence
