> got fired in 2020 march for my last job at a startup

I think being March 2020 && At a Startup, are probably much more explanatory here than any reason they gave you. A lot of companies, and most startups, did substantial layoff's then don't take it personally.

There are probably things you can learn from the experience though. It's possible you were mis-aligned with what your manager wanted; maybe they wanted you to duct tape fixes ASAP & you were over-engineering a more long term elegant solution. Or maybe you just weren't great at showing the value you were contributing to the rest of the team. etc. etc.
