I had a similar post a few years ago.
My fretting pinkie wants to curl inward and almost under my ring finger.
No amount of practice will correct this.
I am not sure if this link is correct but there is a medical condition similar to what you describe.
Like anything else this condition can exist in many different levels.

Oh wow. That’s freaky. I think it normal for the pinky to have a slight bend towards the ring finger but I don’t think I have that condition. At least hope not.
Also just want to followup on the few folks that recommended the barre method on the open D. I tried and indeed, the stretch on the pinky is easier.
But I think I am making progress with the regular way, although very slowly.
