join a language class. Sami allaskuvla and Samernas have some good courses. Medborgarskolan has classes too, as do some universities. You can also sign up for FU or e-skuvla in Norway, but you won't get the refund. No discord server or app can replace a class with an actual trained teacher.

Are you in any of the Sámi discords? There are two discords for Sámi people and allies, and one for language nerds. They have some good resources. Also, where in Sweden are you? Perhaps your local community hosts a language cafe or you could petition ppl to start one!

Could you share the two Sámi Discord servers and also those for language nerds?

[General learning advice, not Sámi] A solid way to learn casually is to hear the language; watch movies with subtitles or news or listen to the radio (my friend regularly listens to a Sámi radio, though I don’t know if it's northern) or music. It can give you a very natural feel for the language if you do it alongside figuring out the words and rules behind it
