Starvation
How exactly is everyone finding food on high pop servers every single tree I go past seems to not have any fruit underneath it. No food to be found in any of the buildings I search is everyone fishing and hunting?
Is that it? Am I missing something else?

Trees take 5-10 minutes if you being near them to spawn fruit.
You get a bit more fluid from mushrooms - I recommend hanging in a field of haybales for 10 minutes and then run around harvesting the mushrooms that spawn around the haybales…also learn which logs and broken tree stumps spawn mushrooms in the forest. You also get a lot more fluid from dried mushrooms than you do from dried fruit - my spawn after the wipe was on yellow food and water status for hours even though I had eaten probably 3 dozen pieces of fruit during that time but when I found a spot spawning a bunch of mushroom, it only took a handful of them to push me into the white.
Ultimately fishing is going to be your best bet for food - two stacks of 6 rags makes a rope. A rope combined with a long stick makes a fishing pole…you can craft hooks from short sticks or bones and you can dig up worms with any blade or digging tool. Fish have the most caloric value of any food in the game. These days if I find a fishing pole when I spawn in, I hang onto that sucker, and If not, I might run around with a rope belt for really long time so I can quickly create a fishing pole whenever I need one……catch three or four fish, tie the rope back into a belt when I’m done and split the pole up and use for firewood when cooking them…

I larp with mushrooms, get a cooking pot, throw in some of those, some chicken, veggies and put it on improvised stand. Gotta open that chernarus Michelin starred restaurant.
