>The meets unironically don't have the same energy as those VRchat videos in whatever world the bar/open area was. Just super random and relatively interesting people shooting the shit, telling crazy stories and having weird avatars.
I can guarantee you that the public worlds you are thinking of have never existed in the way you think they did.
Those videos are condensing hours of normal chatting into a few minutes of highlights, if you'd observe the full thing you'd find most of it boring by your standards as well.

And "people shooting the shit", telling stories and doing the 5903th funny Kermit impression is by no means anything special. Whether you find those people interesting depends more on you than them, though quest-compatible worlds are full of kids, who are by default boring. Random people you can meet by joining on low pop friends+ instances as well.
