Idk but I wonder if u will jump higher if ur one the side of the earth away from which way it's traveling than if u were to jump on the side it's going towards

I think it would be the same. Gravitational pull is uniform everywhere. (assuming spherical symmetry)
However the earth is not perfectly symmetrical and has gravity that is weaker at the equator and at high altitudes.
You would be weightless if you were at the center of the earth. (ignoring the extreme heat at the earths core)

This chart helps
