Honestly if u wanna make friends irl just visit a place frequently like become a regular at a coffe shop or book store and maybe try making small talk with strangers or maybe you'll get lucky and a talkative worker at said place will yapp to you.
Since u stay at home a lot I'd also recommend finding community's online.
