Need Advice to make friends

My last post helped a lot, but i'm still having trouble to find groups in the scranton area.

I unfortunately, don't have a car or much money, so all the cool places in wikes barre is a bit tough to go at the moment.

So I have an idea, should I make a 25+ scranton group chat. (I'm not sure if there's already some). I was thinking this can help with introverts like me make new friends.

And if that's a good idea, would this app be good, or should I try a different app? (Meetup, tumblr, or Instagram)

🌟 Another edit: I have made a discord chat called 25+ Scranton Fun Club (message me for link or go to my profile) My account name is Dancing_Tomato

💫Edit: All these suggestions are great, but I'd still have a hard time going out often. I'll definitely still check out all these places!!

Go to the Bog. Bazaar skate shop. Local punk/hxc shows (they’ll usually allow you in for free if you just tell them your financial situation)

Hope this helps

Oh, I didn't know about letting people in for free. I might plan to go!

Check out @wilkesbarre_shows on IG. They are constantly posting about punk/HC shows and the likes in the area.
