I've tried board games and table tennis groups, it's at least something. I just found no interest there. I understand your point, for me it isn't easy to show up to something without a real interest or knowing someone. There's more to it than just deciding to go. I have to somehow get out of the door and show up, I'm not a very social person.
Contradictory I know. Until a year ago I was happy alone and never had a friend in teenage+ life, but finding someone I actually liked taught me people can be good.
If you're in Melbourne and are actually into Linux/programming I'd love to hear from you. I'm tired of being 'nerdy' meaning playing DnD or video games, I want to mix with people interested in something beyond surface level.

Programming and Linux administration has been a hobby and work experience is in first level support. Some of my personal projects can be found on my portfolio webpage. Confidence level is at a junior level in programming, so I'm looking for something at that level to feel where I belong in the industry. Unfortunately I need to be remote for the time being, living in a rural town and I am not in a financial position to relocate.
This has been my only real complaint in the ~8 months using the client
