Connecting with my teenage son in games on quest2 & 3

I've recently upgraded from rift S to quest 3 and bought my son a quest 2. We have been excited to play in vr together. And was hopeful that it would be way less painful than it has been for me to connect with my friends between rift and quest. After 3 hrs of stuffing around and nearly throwing my quest across the room we were unable to get into a single game together. We tried real fishing vr, gym class basketball, with no luck the only thing we managed to do was join each others home. I even tried turning off all the supervision settings and nearly removed supervision altogether…. Any hints or tips, or am I just missing something simple? We are both online, both on the same network even…. I’m at a loss… I even tried making links, that just opened in a browser on the headset.... help!

iv been with oculus since the first rift, and always found connecting with friends in game harder than any platform I would of thought it would have improved by now, and what makes it more ridiculous is that metas foundation is a social platform???
