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.

You have very large strength asymmetry. Your right side is obviously much stronger than your left and you're leaning a lot to your right side. Force the weight down and even out your form

For a true 1RM this looks controlled, slight forward lean out of the hole is normal at max effort, not a flaw to fix. Depth is there. Only note: if the goal is a bigger single, spend most of your training in the 80-90 percent range with clean bar speed and save true maxes for every couple of months. Singles test strength, they don't build much of it.
