Where to find friends?

I'm looking for other transgender people to be friends with. I used to be antisocial but now that I have been on e for a few months I feel so much better and I want to find some friends to play games with like Minecraft, Terraria, and Spelunky. I don't really know where to make friends but doing it locally isn't an option because I live in the middle of nowhere unfortunately.

We run a blÄhaj matrix room if you're interested in checking that out

Maybe try finding small discord groups for those specific games.

I think in this case the opposite is probably the better approach. Find trans/more generally queer discord/matrix rooms and then find people that play similar games

I've found my trans friends through school and through friends I already have! But if you want, I always love to have more friends :)

I have all of those games but I don't have as much free time as I used to. Lemme know if you wanna talk!

Yeah I don't have as much time as I used to either. I gotta write a paper today after I get home from work, but if you have a discord, I'll join and we can talk sometime later if that's fine.

I had success in smaller communities around more niche topics. For example the discord server of a smaller content creator or game.

I had good experiences on the discord servers for Amethyst-szs (~450 members, <30 active) and transsocial.space (30 members, <10 active, not a lot of activity in general tho)
