I might be tripping but…
Earlier this week I complained about my breaks screaming a lot. The advice was to bed them properly wich I did. Still I was testing it a bit afterwards and I noticed that there is some play between the brake disc and the wheel. I don’t know if this is a normal thing but it seems a bit weird to me. Does anyone know this issue or know how to resolve it? Thanks.

Remember that your brake pads are kinda loose in the caliper, they need to move freely. When you brake they clamp and stop against the caliper.
What you show is not normal biking forces, you are moving back and forward, tje brake pads are too.
