      Indeed, lol is not the same as haha

      It’s more of a sarcastic vibe. Which fits, because you are definitely not laughing out loud when you write lol

      Uppercase LOL feels like a haha fuck them kind of schadenfreude laugh to me.

      Perhaps LOL is a softer version of HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, which I use to the same effect.
