How’s this look? I swept it at the end of last season, but this is the bottom near the stove where I had a hard time reaching due to a bend. Sooteater is on the way! Just checking opinions to see if this is bad or not.

Not bad, but it's the other end you need to be sure is clean. That's where most of the accumulation will be.
That wouldn't worry me a bit. I like to run a brush up the flue as one time I cleaned and had stunned yellow jackets fall out of the flue. I don't want them to plug the flue or their nest to catch on fire up there should a spark travel.
