Hello everyone!
I don't really know if this applies as advertising, if yes, then I'll gladly accept that and will say sorry :D I've just found this page recently, where people's main goal is to learn and practise a language together. It's quite accessible, or well, I never ran into accessibility issues yet. There are a few smaller ones, but if you learn how to deal with them, these things are also usable.
The page is based on chatting, so the main thing you'll do is to tick what is your native language and then what you wanna practise, so either they'll find you or you can find others under the community tab. Don't give up if stupid ones find you, just report them and the helper team is reeeally quick if it comes to banning lol
So the link is:

Happy learning and practising! And if you wanna practise hungarian, you might find me as well :D

Χωρίς να το θέλεις, θα βλέπεις εμένα
Και τα μάτια σου θα ‘ναι θλιμμένα
Όταν θα ξυπνάς στον ύπνο σου
Χωρίς να το θέλεις, θα σκέφτεσαι εμένα
Και θα νιώθεις μεγάλο κενό

Wow! Maybe I'll try and work on my french with that but I still need to decide.

Well, a bit of browsing :D

I was also looking for an app with which I could practise, and so I found it

Not here in the English community of Elten. For this, you have to go to the German community of Elten.

Yes please. You'll encounter me there as well.

I used Speaky on my iPhone, but it turned out not to be completely accessible. For example, someone's command of a given language is shown in the form of a picture.

Well, for practicing German language I started using "Tandem" application for iOs. It is the most accessible salution I've ever found for these things, i tryed to use hellotalk, but I didn't like it a lot because of it's bad accessibility and you cannot choose more than 1 language to learn if you ever want to.

Yeah. I should go and look at the german forums and maybe chip in.

Well, so Amikumu might be another choice worth a try for those looking for an app to practice anylanguage. I have tried both Speaky and Amikumu, and it's unfortunately totally right that Speaky is not so accessible to be used conveniently, and has strange connection and message delivery problems. As for Amikumu, as far as I have observed, it is intended primarily for professionals rather than anyone learning some languageas some sort of hoby.
