How do I cope with not belonging anywhere and being friendless at 23?Should I go to community college and make friends? Talk to random people on the street? Install discord? I hate that app by the way but it seems like people my age congregate on there when they wanna meet like-minded individuals.

This works but it can't be COMPLETELY random, there has to be some odd curiosity that compelled you to ask/say something particular, usually

Try to have hobbies, and meet people who do those hobbies.

If you like heavy metal you could start attending concerts at a venue and then if you keep coming back to the same venue people will start noticing you and chat with you. You could purchase some drugs and then when someone is asking around: Do you know someone who has drugs? You can give them some and then they'll start relying on you to be the guy with the drugs.
You could also join a sports club if that is your sort of a thing or like a chess club or Pokemon card gatherings or whatever it is you're interested in.

You do not make friends. You make acquaintances, and over time some of them evolve into friends.

Start by just meeting people. Say "Hi" to your neighbors, workmates, local shopkeepers. Join a club, a gym, a team, a church. A lot of people will never get any closer than the "Hi" level, but that's fine. But with some you'll advance to the stop-and-chat level, and some of those will evolve to the make-plans-to-get-together level and maybe some of those into real friends.

And don't reject those who don't evolve beyond one of the early levels. A healthy social life includes friends and acquaintances of all levels.
