Shoulder pain after doing dips, what causes this and how to fix it? Am I not meant to do dips? Is it even worth it? Feels like I strained something in my shoulder

Check the video and try it in both directions (thumb downward and upward). If it's not enough to fix the pain, I have some bad news.

Is that the only exercise that makes feeling pain in the shoulder? Maybe you have a rotator's cuff issue.

you exceeded your body's mobility, you need to focus on un-fucking your shoulders by doing face pulls and dead hangs, and after your starting to feel better do very light ohp to fully restore shoulder health.

if you want to continue doing dips just dont go that deep again until you become strong enough to do so

dont rush it

Restart back with assisted dips and hit he full range of motion and hit the deepest dips you can. Work up back to body weight to help shoulder strength. It's what I did, now I just stretch and I'm able to start at the deepest part of the dip.

Shoulders should be tucked back and flexed along with your upper back, you should have a slightly arched upper back position, traps need to be down and flexed as well, not up to your ears.
If you can't maintain that position in all your reps, lower the weight if you are doing wieghted or use a band until your upper back and shoulders get strong enough.
