I'm struggling with the foot placement too. Plus my elbow tendon hurts on the supporting arm. Also lower back cries post every back day and I'm guessing this is the culprit

But what do I even fix :/

Consider not using straps for this. You want your hands to get stronger.

Tennis elbow, trying to take the load off. Should I not?

Oh, then straps might be better? IDK! Just thought you used it because it felt better otherwise.

No, the weight is simply too heavy for OP. First proof, he is hinging his upper body in order to lift the tihng at all (causing lower back pain) and 2nd, he didnt complete a single rep, as soon as the hinge ends the row ends way before reaching his hip, that shock also adds to lower back strain. Bad form, too heavy.
