What does it mean that no one seeks after God?

Answered in 1 source

It means that in our natural state, due to sin, no one genuinely desires a relationship with God.

The phrase 'no one seeks after God' in Romans 3:11 highlights the spiritual deadness of humanity apart from divine intervention. By nature, individuals are inclined toward sin and rebellion against God, driven by their corrupt hearts. The implication is that seeking God requires a transformative work of the Holy Spirit, who enables an individual to recognize their need for Christ. This truth underscores the necessity of God's initiating grace, as it is only through His spirit that we can come to faith and repentance, ultimately seeking Him as revealed in the gospel.
