I would love to see different ways this is portrayed, preferably with the MC being Extremely Online.
I've also read/heard about a few thrillers where the narration is very anti-true-crime-community, and I'd like to see more mixed/positive portrayals of online community (true crime or other topics). Is there a novel where a yarn maker tries to investigate the people faking their own deaths but she still loves the chat? Etc

Otherside Picnic by Iori Miyazawa maybe? The main character is an anthropology student who regularly uses 2chan (kind of Japan equivalent of 4chan but with less notorious vibes). She finds a door to another world that’s basically just 100% terrible. Every urban legend or myth in it is based extensively on 2chan and the author includes a bibliography of where each story originates from so you could potentially even go read the threads. This is plot relevant.
