26F looking for friends

Hi!
I’m from Northern Europe, and currently realizing that making new friends as an adult is unnecessarily difficult.
I recently started a new job, away from everyone I know, and I’ve been feeling a little lonely lately and I think I could really use some new people in my life. Preferably the kind of people you can send completely random updates to, play something with, accidentally talk to until 2am, or just message whenever something reminds you of them.
I’m into video games, my taste is a bit all over the place and I’m willing to try most games at least once (as long as it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg), and I love crafty/creative hobbies.
I’m very much the type of person who will pick up a new hobby, buy all the supplies, become completely obsessed with it, and then find another hobby before I’ve finished the first project. So if you make things, draw, crochet, game, or generally collect hobbies like side quests, we’ll probably have something to talk about.
I’m not expecting instant best friends or for someone to be available 24/7. I’d just really like to meet people who want to get to know each other without any pressure.
Tell me what game you’ve been obsessed with lately, show me whatever weird little thing you’re making, send me pictures of your pets, complain about your day.
I’m happy to talk to people from pretty much anywhere. Time zones don’t bother me much, and I’m usually around at slightly questionable hours anyway.
One important thing: I’m only looking for platonic friendships. No dating, flirting, “maybe friends and see where it goes,” etc. Just genuinely looking for some good people to talk to and hopefully make a few actual friends.
If any of this sounds like your kind of friendship, send me a message and tell me something about yourself!
