of course a common narrative is to sleep on ur back to combat a development of asymmetry in the face, however when you sleep on your back your tongue rolls down your throat. I've also heard on here you should sleep on your left side, with your face resting on ur arm and a pillow between your legs. What do u guys think?

But I got used to sleep on my back and I also sleep on the floor

yeah this again rearticulates sleeping on your left side, however I find when i sleep on my side, especially on my arm, my head naturally looks downwards which to me doesn't seem good for posture/face development. Is this an issue?

Sleeping on your side with your head tilted downward (especially on your arm) can mess with your posture and facial symmetry over time, yeah. Will be pretty marginal unless extremely prolonged and you've slept like an aspie. If you have created a forward head posture whilst sleeping, it'll put asymmetrical pressure on the jaw and such. I'm pretty sure most the asymmetry caused by this, although minimal generally, is due to the posture problems induced by it. Posture is pretty important.

You can use a pillow that'll align your head with your spine. Don't sleep on your arm. Can always sleep on your back if you wish.

The huge asymmetries are usually genetic and a problem with the actual bone, not a muscle asymmetry.

Sleeping on your back for muh facial symmetry is incel behavior.
