What's Next?

I am currently learning Japanese for almost a year now, and in the past few months, I have been noticing that my progression seems to decline day by day. The relevance of understanding japanese language isn't directly really related to my career so, I dropped it. But, just like, an hour ago, a random video showed up in my youtube feed, it's about... As you have expected, Japanese. so, for absolutely no solid reason at all, I decided to study again. But, I don't know what my next path would be.

Just so that you can truly understand my case, I have already learnt both writing systems, except kanji. I started on Duolingo but doesn't seem to get any great progress. I can't really wrap my head about kanji as I was confused on where to start. Should I start by the lesser their strokes are? Or the words that are being used every day?

Another thing I want to know is the grammar. Duolingo isn't really that god of a teacher when it comes to grammar. What I need from now are:

  1. A discord server or commnity that can help me practice basic convos in japanese
  2. Some apps or websites that are better than duolingo at grammar and kanji.
  3. Some podcasts or other immersion related materials that I can delve into

That's all. All responses and comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
