I brought this up in a thread a few months ago. It seems to be people under 30 or 40 who do it most. It may have started as a regional thing, but it’s nation wide fad now. It doesn’t bother me, but it seems lazy and I hold people who do it in lower regard. They don’t seem like serious people to me.
On the other hand there is a presenter on a podcast “Gastropod” who pronounces “T” very precisely and it is a bit disconcerting. While most of the people I know pronounce “water” with a soft “T” or almost like a “d” and as one syllable, she uses a hard “T” and makes it two syllables.
