It’s not in my nature to be very funny. My mum isn’t and she told me she never found my father very funny. I don’t try to be funny because I haven’t got the wit. It’s not like I’m super serious all the time, but I do get self conscious some times about it.

I want to say it's not REQUIRED in the strictest sense imaginable for attraction. But I can't think of any girls I've ever laid that didn't laugh.
I've had a few girls try to go home with me (not important how I fucked up) who I don't think I made laugh per se.
I mean it's not necessary for a first time lay but it's somewhat important for something longer term. Again probably not 100% necessary but it's not great to have no comedic skill.
Your life would be a lot easier if you could make girls laugh. This is a fine print answer, I'm not advocating you get by without humor, that's just game on hard mode

I concur with this. In any group of people I'm with I'm always "the smart one" and almost always "the funny one" (although I think I'm more witty than funny. In any case, I make people laugh a lot.)
People like to laugh, and they like people who make them laugh. Being funny isn't especially "sexy," but it's like putting your thumb on the scale: making a girl laugh won't create attraction where none exists, but it will make her see you in a more favorable light in general.
I said that I'm usually "the funny one" in any group, but I don't tell jokes per se: what I am is a very quick-witted smart-ass. Like @User4566 recommended, watch stand-up comedians to see how they do it. I recommend "Drybar comedy" (lots of videos on YouTube). Those guys are all professionals, and they make people laugh without having to rely on toilet humor, which is 1) low class, and 2) inappropriate in most social settings. Humor is about keeping people off-balance: leading them one way then jerking them hard another way with the punchline. "Agree and amplify" works pretty well for putting humor into conversations. Making off-beat observations can be humorous, too. Make sure you're not "seriously" making fun of other people... that's passive-aggressive and you'll come across as a bully (and may end up picking your teeth up off the floor if you do it to the wrong person). It's okay to playfully tease, but it should be obvious that you're being playful, and you can't get offended when someone does it back. In fact, a willingness to laugh at yourself shows what PUAs call "amused mastery." Don't be afraid to make jokes at your own expense, either: if you do something stupid, make a light-hearted joke about it. Everyone is thinking it anyway... you might as well "steer into the skid."

If I was you, I'd watch some comedians and learn from them. Stay far away from modern saturday night live.
But I think the reason you're like this is because you may need practice. There are sometimes when I'm not funny and then there are times when I'm making girls die of laughter. I'm not 100% with being funny all the time and no one is, so don't put preassure on yourself to be funny at a point in time.
In my experience, talking about stupid stuff usually gets girls going. By stupid, I mean STOOPID like down-right retarded.
Here's some examples of shit I've asked girls that made them giggly and laugh (Saying it in a playfully fun way with a shit eating smile is key, they'll pick up on you just having fun with the conversation):
Remember when Steve left Blue's Clues? That other guy they had sucked.
What's your favorite dinosaur?
Okay, that last one was a shitty pick up line that might work if she's hammered but the point is: being funny = being loosey goosey about interactions and saying things that people might not expect. I believe it's also like being in your own frame because you are calm and say what you want. Of course, don't joke about 9/11 and say racist jokes because that will CERTAINLY get you outcasted wherever you go.
Sometimes I can be naturally funny even when I don't mean it: I remember my manager was telling me where I was going after I was clocking out and I told her "hey, a schedule's a schedule" and she and the rest of my co-workers died laughing.
Now this is another thing: don't think that being funny for compensate for anything. Some of the guys on other red-pill places on Reddit (before they got banned) called it Jester-Maxxxing. Incel forums use that term for guys who have to compensate their insecurities by being the "funny man" who gets women. It can work, but it's not required dude.
Lucky for you, you could be the most unfunny man ever and if a girl like you, she WILL giggle at even you're shittiest knock-knock jokes so don't worry about it.

Thanks man, I struggled a lot with insecurity over the years. Started coming good towards the end of 2022 and now that I’ve got my dick wet I feel quite a lot better about myself. Getting dumped by my last girlfriend didn’t even put a dent in my ego because of advice from people like you on trp.

That's fantastic, man. Here's to an even better 2023.

Like any skill, some people have a knack for it and pick humor up quickly. Others have a harder time, but it's absolutely something you can practice and get better at. As others have said, not required to have it, but definitely a powerful tool to have in the kit. If it isn't there everything else you bring just needs to be tighter.

Women claim "he's so funny" which just means she giggles a lot which is her trying to be appealing. The hot guys who are "so funny" are really just hot guys.
Women are not funny.
But you don't want to marry your mother, in fact you don't want to marry anyone. Grow up and learn about the world, DO NOT LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER.
If you want to fuck girls, the secret is to be emotionally engaging rather than funny. ie engage with her emotions. Enjoyment will follow.

The actual chads are both hot and engaging. Lots of great looking guys are dolts and still struggle with keeping women around.

I'm funny like George Carlin. People like him. All he did was point out reality for the clown world that it is and people would laugh. Just find a comedian that fits your style and life back-story. A few good examples are Bill Burr(angry red head), Doug Stanhope(genius alcoholic), Russel Peters(stereotypical Indian abroad), John Novosad(boomer hippie), etc.
You probably think you have to be a clown like Jim Carrey but he's not actually that funny. Find a comedian that jives with your personality and then watch interviews so you can learn how they took their life and integrated humor into it. You have to be able to laugh at yourself and the world around you. George Carlin was a miserable failure at comedy until he realized this.
Edit: Oh and don't forget Patrice O'Neal. They guy who asshole game is modeled on.

She came over yesterday and I actually made her laugh a couple of times and we laughed together about few things. Didn’t try to act any different, she just did the work for me. She went home and was texting me how badly she wanted to grab my dick but didn’t want to be too rapey.

Don't be a clown. You're not there to entertain women. Learn some dad jokes. Throw one out there once in awhile. Not too often though. Maybe like once a week or so. Be funny that way.

No.
I'll even go further: how funny women find you is dependent on your attractiveness.
If you're unattractive, you aren't funny, you're weird.
If you're unattractive, you aren't assertive, you're creepy.
If you're unattractive, you're not confident, you're overcompensating.
Women do not give a shit about how funny you are - that's a giant blue-pilled lie that they tell because the truth makes them look like sluts - they just want hot big dicked men to rail them.

If you want to live an enjoyable life, then not necessarily. But if you want a girl/boy, then having humor can help you a lot. There are people that fit you, but not a lot definitely. Still, forcing yourself to be a different person and spending a life with someone who doesn't like the real you is the worst choice possible
