Resum	Digital autoethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher systematically examines their own lived experience within digital environments — social media platforms, online communities, gaming worlds, digital workplaces, or other networked spaces — to illuminate broader cultural and social phenomena. Combining autoethnography's first-person reflexivity with the study of digital life, it treats personal digital traces, interactions, and self-representations as primary data.	Narrative inquiry is a qualitative research methodology that treats stories and life narratives as primary data, analyzing how individuals construct meaning and identity through storytelling. Developed by D. Jean Clandinin and F. Michael Connelly (2000), narrative inquiry examines the narratives people tell about their lives, experiences, and transitions, understanding that people make sense of experience through narrative.	Netnography is a qualitative research method that adapts the principles of cultural ethnography to the study of online communities and social media environments. Coined by Robert Kozinets in 1997 and systematised in his 2010 handbook, netnography treats digital spaces — forums, social networks, blogs, review sites — as naturally occurring field sites where communities gather, share meanings, and construct identities. The method combines unobtrusive observation of digital traces with active participation and, where appropriate, direct member interaction.
