after playing vrchat for 4 years here's my take:
you'll make the best friends by not trying to make friends

to know which worlds to check out, search through the udon worlds and popular listings. most will be bad but some are good and the search makes it feel more worth it once you find good ones

you can also just type random dictionary words into the world search and find surprisingly interesting forgotten worlds like that. if you ever find one you like, click on the creator and check their other worlds too, usually they have a bunch of good ones

if you actively try to "make friends", you'll end up with a friends list filled with hundreds of people you barely talked to, connect with, or care about. instead, just do the stuff you like, and if someone happens to do the same stuff and coincidentally does it along with you, THEN make them a friend

if anyone ever approaches you and tries to be friendly out of nowhere without actually having anything in common with you, there's a 99% chance they're just interested in gaining your trust and then asking you to suck their dick then ghosting you afterwards. don't get tricked by people's kind words. actions speak louder than words. see if they're actually into the same shit as you, drag it out if you're not sure, if it "doesn't feel right" then it probably isn't
