Poll: GMs, where do you find players? Players, where do you find games? (self.rpg)

I was wondering how the wider RPG community found games nowadays. Do you reach out to your non-RPG friends? Go to your FLGS? Use online RPG groups? Something else?

I never expected this, but the majority of my players are co-workers. Before, my players were a mix of friends and "friends of friends." I've also had luck with game specific discords (e.g. Blades in the Dark) that have their own channels for finding players & games.
