The ring finger and pinky share a tendon so you’ll never achieve complete independence, practice shifting if reaching out with pinky is difficult.
This was a big help for me. I badly cut my first / index finger long ago and had it stitched and wrapped up for a length of time.
Playing without that finger really did wonders for the dexterity and strength of my ring and pinkster.
I'll still practice scales and play that way to this day.
