I'm in a similar situation....I'm not sure I have much advice for you, but I can certainly relate to this and the feeling sucks. Plus now the shape of what online communities look like are rapidly changing, which I think makes it harder for everyone, but especially neurodivergent people. That being said, I don't think that ND people and especially autistic people were well served by most of the dominant platforms of the past several years anyways, so I'm hopeful that things will eventually turn out for the better, but there's also the possibility that things could get much worse.
I think that podcasts have been helping a little. That and finding a new hobby (albeit not a social one). But some days are still really hard.
