I have made real-life friends on Instagram (well, back when insta was still semi decent), it's much easier for me to make the first move by text than try to do it face to face. Discord maybe? Activist groups in my experience are a good place to find like-minded people and they are usually welcoming to newcomers, same thing with underground-ish/alternative art/culture spaces -- if you are into any of that. Usually you can contact someone beforehand to show you around. For me it's really difficult to go to unknown social groups alone so the usual suggestion to "start a new hobby" doesn't really work.
Work. But I feel like they don't deserve me, they deserve someone better. I hate being lonely but I also hate wasting people's time.
Meetup. Or really a any situation where you're with people doing the same activity.
Playing tennis. There's local clubs that have social mixers where you play a few games and then switch courts and play with different people. There's USTA matches that pair you with people at your level. It's fun too
