Getting desprete here

Ive been member since last year but I have trouble finding a game to join. Now I cannot see my friends and family so is there PLEASE any groups I can join. I know some 5e from youtube
Use the join a game feature of the site. If you're truly desperate you should start dming. Players will flock to you and you will have a game within a week or two. If you're scared of DMing then post an LFG Alternate DMing one-shots. There's lots of free content you can play through online and SRD rules are free. You don't need any of the extra books, you can still play dnd.

You can't get a game because people flock to the openings? Make your own opening. You can say that you don't want to, that DMing is hard work, that you don't know enough... but making excuses means you're nowhere near "desperate."

Don't be disheartened.  It's literally a numbers game. Players outnumber DMs here by about 50,000 to 1.  Factor in time zones, days vs. weekends, and it gets understandably difficult.  On the plus side 5E games outnumber all the rest combined here on Roll 20. That said, the gaming community could always use more DMs. Try setting one up, you may find you like telling your story. :)

You don't need any of the extra books, you can still play dnd. Also quoted for truth. See also: You don't need any player experience to DM (Especially if your players are also new! There's always going to be times when someone has to look something up. Either a player knows and can tell you, or you google. Either way it's like, 3 seconds.) You don't need a homebrewed world and adventure, just get a free one-shot off of DMsguild, DrivethruRPG, or any of a thousand other sites. Then you can just read-and-run DMing is fun! These excellent videos for if you're still doubtful

Hey, Olof. Here's a guy looking for new players for his campaign: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8812028/lf-new-slash-newish-players-for-ongoing-5e-campaign" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8812028/lf-new-slash-newish-players-for-ongoing-5e-campaign</a>
