I feel lost in this big world, where can I find people like myself?

Since the pandemic has started I have done a lot of thinking especially about my queerness or lack thereof. Most questions I have in my regular life can be answered with a simple Google search or even a talk with a friend. However, when it comes to being queer the resources feel a bit limited to me. I know there are several videos on the internet and probably forums out there but when it comes to personal questions about my conflicts with my gender and sexuality, I feel a bit lost as to where to turn.
“The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers & cities; but to know someone who thinks & feels with us, & who, though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.” – Goethe
I know in more accepting countries, there are resources that are available for individuals and they possibly have the chance to see the type of love they want in public. When it comes to countries like mine, resources are limited and the public is openly against people just being in love in a non-heterosexual way. I often feel as if I am alone in this and wonder is it possible to find a loving community who will accept me and if there is how do I find them. Just imagining a space where I can be an openly queer person and they understand and have similar conflicts. More than ever in this time my heart goes out to people in more difficult situations where the laws are stricter and people are killed and they feel as if they will never find people like themselves. And if you are reading this and looking for a community of your own, I volunteer to be one of the members of your personal communities.
