Both front and back should have the same lever pull, assuming similar
pad and rotor wear. If you got a lot of air out the question is, how
did that much get in there in the first place? That doesn't sound
healthy.

In a well-designed brake system air tends to bubble up towards the
handles. Maybe ride around a little, get the brakes good and warm,
and bleed again. I always vent at the top when bleeding my MTB
brakes. Only very little air comes out, if any. The brakes always
feel firm but I do it as a preventative maintenance to prevent a
surpsise brake fade. I have seen that happen with a rider in front of
me on a long downhill. His front faded but since he was a good dirt
bike rider he saved the situation with a nice sideways slide,
stopping in a massive plume of dust. And some expletives.

What is a "Fire Pit"?

basically, a pit where you have a controlled fire. In our case, it's a ~
6' diameter structure built out of cobblestones on a concrete pad.
I know that there is subject drift, but going from how to get disc brakes to bleed properly to how to use fire is just too stupid for words. Everyone uses BBQ's and not a hole in the ground where a fire is burning!
Well, apartment denizens often use little hibachis on the balcony, and urban homeowners frequently have pressed steel charcoal grills but where space is more plentiful so are stone bordered pits.
