If I just hover a word, Yomitan works perfectly fine and usually shows me the most appropriate reading, so I think the order of my dictionairies isn't the issue here. But if I add a sentence to Anki, Yomitan uses the most obscure furigana for the reading of pretty much any word, like 私 becomes あたい which isn't wrong... but not exactly common either. I haven't changed anything in my Yomitan setup recently. Any idea what's going on here?

Does it only show that one reading? When I make a card with jpmn via yomitan, mine shows all the readings although sometimes the order is a bit weird. Maybe it's an issue with the note you're using?
Some screenshots for context. If I hover over the sentence in the text it shows multiple dictionnairy entries in the order that most makes sense. In Anki, the target word (meaning) is fine and so is the translation/explanation (notes). But the furigana version of the sentence (reading) makes no sense. わたし suddenly becomes あたい and 黙る doesn't even get furigana at all for some reason. I'm referring to sentence-furigana in the Yomitan Anki setup.
your fields and handlebars in the last screenshot are all mixed up
it should be something like
Word: {expression}
Meaning: {glossary} or {jpmn-primary-definition} (if you use jpmn)
Reading: {furigana} or {furigana-plain}
Audio: {audio}
Pitch Accent: {pitch-accent}
Sentence: {sentence} or {cloze-prefix}<b>{cloze-body}</b>{cloze-suffix}
SentenceReading: {sentence-furigana}
here's a list of pre made note types you can download:

Thank you! It's a super old note type that makes little sense but I don't mind. I just don't understand why the sentence-furigana is so weird? That's the part I want to fix.
from the description provided, i don't think adding furigana to all words is the intended purpose, maybe what they mean is adding the furigana only on the word you mined
if you want hiragana everywhere, idk if yomitan alone can do that but the jpmn note type can https://xelieu.github.io/jp-lazy-guide/setupAnki/
Ah, I see. I feel like it was more accurate in the past than it is now for whatever reason. But if it Yomitan can't do it properly, I'll switch to the jpmn note type. Thank you!
