Zhrnutie	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.	Digital ethnography is a qualitative research method that adapts traditional ethnographic fieldwork to online and digitally mediated settings. Drawing on sustained participant observation, document collection, and sometimes interviews, the researcher immerses themselves in one or more digital communities — social media platforms, forums, gaming spaces, or messaging groups — to understand how culture, identity, and social practice are constructed through digital interaction. The approach recognises that online spaces are not merely reflections of offline life but distinctive sites of cultural production in their own right.
