My only advice on the mini F is to try and use the outside part of your index finger when barring the B and high E strings. Not the fleshy part of your finger. Curving your elbow outward going away from your guitar will help a little with getting the correct angle. I would also advise embracing barre chords as soon as you can. Don’t try to avoid them. They are amazingly valuable, and if you also do the Fretboard Wizard course, you will see why. I try to play some type of barre chord(s) everyday. I still play them poorly most of the time, but improving.
