23 and me?

Has anyone used this for the sole purpose of finding family members? I grew up without a father and that’s because he doesn’t know I exist. I’m 24. Just had my first child. I want to find him and I’m all out of options. My mom is telling me she doesn’t know his name or how old he is or what he possibly looks like now. I know tests like 23 and me can link you to family members who have done the test and I’m hoping it can put me in touch with someone from that side of the family. This is probably a long shot to be honest but I don’t know how else to find him.
