Squatting with toes up or toes down?

I see some people squatting on a decline surface.

I've seen people with poor ankle mobility with raise their heels off the ground as they squat

I've been rolling up a yoga mat and placing it under my toes when I squat. I thought that was good for the ankle

What is the right way?

Do you squat with toes up or toes down?

I know it's important to keep heels planted in the ground

But I see some people squatting with their feet on some decline surface so their toes are an inch lower than their heels

I always thought I should be squatting on an incline surface so my toes are elevated and my heels are more firmly against the ground. For example, I'll fold up and a yoga mat and have my toes on the mat while my heels are on the ground
