Hard to tell from the video. It would be a bit clearer with straight line moves. Really the circles are small and the lead ins are also tight arcs. Maybe slow down the feed rate and try a video of straight lines?
But I think you should figure out the obvious issue first. The most obvious to me is that there is slop in the Y. The Y should be solid just like the X. If there's slop then the Y will jerk and bounces back and forth as the feedrate and direction changes. Is there any play in the motor shaft? Or is it solid when the motor is powered but not moving. There is some kind of play between the the motor and the rack. Find it first you must
