Does anyone have experience making friends in a new city?

Does anyone know how to make friends in a new city? Currently not in college and I work remotely too + not a very physical person so I'm at a loss for how to start.

Just thought I'd ask here 😅

Go places that appeal to you. If your a nerd, find your local comic shop or game store. If you like music then see if theres a local bar with a band playing. Or if you like watching sports, go see a game. You're more likely to find people you click with that way

Appreciate the help and reply! I've tried that I just don't really know how to start a conversation with people or follow up. Especially if they're already in their friend groups. Is it okay to just walk up and say hello or something?

I'm realizing that's the hard part that a lot of people don't really know how to answer. Do you have any experience in pursuing friends or is that just too inorganic and do these things just happen randomly?
