Another route is to go to your local developer meetups – even if the topic isn’t directly related to you – and ask around.

This is good advice and probably one of the best methods to meet people. I am currently looking for some other options( online communities) as there is not enough developer meetups in my area. But thank you for advice, I appreciate it
