My experience in France has been closer to one of the blue colors. They seem to very much prefer when someone at least tries, even if they’re struggling.
France or Paris?
Not the original commenter, but I've heard that may just be a Paris thing which I think you're hinting at. I've personally been to Paris and had the expected negative experience, but in my singular visit to Montreal (not actually France), the people I talked to were very open to people trying to speak French. Heard that the Montreal experience is closer to the norm and Paris just kind of sucks.
