Please note the following:

* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.

* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

Right now I'm using Duolingo, but I'm getting tired of being told dejeuner means "lunch". Is there something I can use that's more localized?

Yeah, that and listening to audiobooks read by Quebec speakers has been very helpful. It helps that I'm a sci-fi fan and Jules Verne is incredible. A lot of french audiobooks are free on librivox, though it can be hard to tell who is Quebecois or not.
