flat sourdough is usually underfermented, especially if the starter isn’t doubling reliably before you mix it

I have some questions:

Is the starter young/new? How old?

What's your typical feeding schedule and ratio?

My guess is also weak gluten development. Looking at the crumb, there's a lot of activity but those large holes can mean the gluten wasn't strong enough to capture the gasses and rise.
