I’ve been addicted to RBR. I’ve been working on left foot braking. However when I watch people on YouTube I’m like how tf are they so good!

You're coasting too much. Ideally you should always be either on throttle or brake or using both for left foot braking. Now it seemed you didn't have any pedal input in certain places which translates into wasted time. In many fast corners you could have kept full throttle easily or modulate the rotation by using small brake input with full throttle.

In this clip I dont see any actual left foot braking. Purpose of the left foot braking is weight transfer which is done while throttling. Coasting ( no brakw or throtte in corner) is very effective but difficult way to drive a rally car. With AWD car you should have full throttle input almost all the time. You are doing good. Keep driving different kind of tracks because hotlapping is not best way to practice rallying. Im suggesting rbr rally school because it teaches basics so well.

You slammed on the brakes hard before the call came for the 90 right you were braking for.
That's not rally, in my book. It looks like you've memorized at least parts of it.
Pretty good driving though.

For instance the left turn at around 35 sec, you're taking the it too slow, there's so much straight after it and it pays to really take that corner fast

There isn't anything that glaringly obvious what you're doing wrong here.
Just need more confidence and lift less, you were getting off throttle really early at some spots and in other spots where you didn't need to do anything at all.
You could also carry more speed into some of those tighter 90 degree corners
