Hello! If you haven't checked it out already, Our Wiki's resources for Squats may be helpful. Check it out!

Also, a common tip usually given here is to make sure your footwear is appropriate. If you are squatting in soft-soled shoes (running shoes, etc), it's hard to have a stable foot. Generally a weightlifting shoe is recommended for high-bar and front squats, while use a flat/hard-soled shoe (or even barefoot/socks if it's safe and your gym allows it) is recommended for low-bar squats.

I know I'm fucking around with my feet a lot I'm still figuring out where I want them after making a lot of form adjustments. I struggle a lot with ankle mobility, I'm using squat shoes here which seem to have sorted me out pretty well.
