Local discords have been the best places for me to find players. I live in a smallish city in Washington and am part of two regional discords. From them, I've had enough success that I recently hosted a mini-con which had 3-4 GMs running one-shot adventures for ~15 players. It was a good time, organized entirely online.
Thanks for the response! As a follow up what kind of games do you usually run/play?
Lots of things that aren't d&d/Pathfinder. Currently I'm running a monster of the week game and playing in a game of Fallout 2d20. I'll probably switch again when my campaign wraps up to something new.
