I'm seeking recommendations for mp games where I could make friends so

must run on Linux
must have a multiplayer element
said multiplayer must not rely on you already having friends, so it must include an alive function finding you a team
must have a function to communicate and add people you played with afterwards

The games I know of, which fullfil these (obviously tired of these, hence why seeking more):

Deep Rock Galactic
Dead by Daylight
Guild Wars 2
League of Legends
Overwatch 2 (possible issues with client on Linux)

I live in a country where I don't speak the language, I moved here not to go homeless in the previous country and I really miss any human connections. I will appreciate the recs.

I tried DOTA multiple times. Some of the people were really cool (I didn't know there was VC and people were speaking, so when I found out how to speak myself, I told them I didn't know of vc and thought I was hearing voices and they found it hilarious), but I don't like the gameplay. Not saying LoL is better, as they ruined any semblance of balance and don't seem to even know how to balance classes, but DOTA just doesn't do it for me.
