anyone can upload to arxiv.org. I, and many others, regard single-author publications with a higher degree of suspicion, so you should still reach out to other researchers in the area and foster collaborations first.

I thought you still need at least an affiliation which is why the crackpot version (which doesn't require anything) exists? http://vixra.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ViXra

In principle there's no reason why you can't publish something as an independent researcher in a normal scientific journal. However of course you have to convince them that it's worth publishing and may have to pay publication fees.

Other than that try preprint servers like arxiv. Unless your research is obviously bogus they'll usually accept almost anything. If your research is worthy you may still be able to publish it in a peer reviewed journal afterwards.
