You're doing great, anon. All i can tell you is to focus a little more on how different lighting scenarios effect your images, but to be honest, if you just keep on shooting and editing for a while you'll get a feel for it. There definitely are some objective wrongs in photography, however, there aren't really any rules when it comes to what genuienly makes an image good other the standard loose guidelines of "composition and lighting stuff".

Take time to learn your camera equipment and experiment with all kinds of settings, take time to learn your niche, and experiment with editing styles until you either find a style that stands out, or you eventually begin to produce beautiful raws straight out of the camera that might only need a touch-up.

At the end of the day what matters is that you are proud of your pictures. And the goal is that retrospectively, you'll be able to look at the images you once were so proud of, and know that you now can do better.

Lighting > camera choice; for like 70% of photography. You could use a modern, cheap digishit but with properly used lighting it would btfo any snapshit from fuji MF.
Basically, get a good flash and learn how to use it off-camera as well as for fill lighting. Diffusers and catchlights are your friend. Yes it will take more effort and look a bit clunky but that's how you do it.

Otherwise, just learn the exposure triangle and keep shooting for a while. You won't know what you need to improve upon until you're doing the basics all yourself.
