How do adults find a group? I haven't played in 15 years (since I graduated from college). In theory I'm willing to DM, but I never have before so I'm afraid that I'd be terrible. I'm not sure I'm willing to risk embarrassing myself like that in front of people I don't know.

A guy I know says he does free-form roleplaying with ChatGPT but that seems kind of sad - I'm not ready to give up on having a human connection.

Option 1: Take the plunge as a DM, announce before hand that you're new at this. Everyone who thinks they can do better is free to give it a try.

Option 2: Local Game Store.

Option 3: reddit /r/lfg. Google how to turn a search into an RSS stream, set up a search, be ready to jump into worthwhile-seeming posts quickly. Be ready to go through a few bad/mediocre groups until you find something that clicks.
