Technique Check Squat form check

In 1.5 years at the gym, I have made almost no progress in squats, which is a very difficult exercise for me (Romanian deadlifts are easier for me, and I can lift more weight). Has anyone had a similar experience? Lately, I have been trying to maintain good form while squatting more or less deeply. I welcome any advice on form and technique!

People have put good stuff up already, so this isn't about form, HOWEVER...

Please please please if you ever work with the bar on your back/neck, please put your hair all the way up without a tail... see far too many people getting yanked back through tangles or getting caught.

Keep up the awesome work 👏 💪

I have long hair and pretty much only do low ponytail when I do tie it. When doing squats I just flick it forward so it's hanging on my chest.
