No big self help lemmy so I had to ask it somewhere else. Alright, I'm an university student but:

I don't like too much noise (no parties or bars).
I only go to university twice per week and it's far from home.
I don't like dating apps.
Social media imo stresses me out instead of helping me.
Can't steal friends of friends: New city, I know no one here.
I suck abismally at sports. Also I don't have a sporty profile.
Board/cardgame shops usually catter to people aged 30 and over as they can actually buy the games.

I'm just, like, out of ideas where to meet people aged 16-26. My best shot so far was in public transport but I'm usually too tired to bother. Been thinking of joining a DnD table or something just to meet people already rofl.

I'm not in NYC, kek.

Anyway, the hard part is that I'm not in the USA and universities work very differently, but the practice of students gathering around always happen. Someone suggested joining things thought out for other fields and I think it's the best idea so far since I don't really mingle with people who study my subject. But giving the board game shops a fair chance is not a bad idea either. TY!
