Boardgamegeek. Arguable if there's a better resource for boardgames. Discoverability can be low, but their rankings are an excellent proxy before you become an expert. Catalog is crowdsourced and unbelievably comprehensive.

emshort.blog covers narrative-focused games pretty comprehensively. a few streamers i follow (esp Jerma985) sometimes dredge up interesting/weird games i’d never heard of before, though these channels tend to be pretty noisy. everything else is mostly word of mouth

Asking people what game they are playing at board game cafes if I don’t recognize it.
Thanks for the shoutout!
