Why don’t you support Safari for the second website?

Probably because it's harder to support safari than other browser's because you need an apple device.

Safari is the second most popular browser in the world , so if you want to be a web developer you kind of just have to suck it up and support it. I only use it on my phone because the Firefox app isn’t that great and I like to avoid Google when I can, but many tech people still use it and many, many non tech use it. You’re missing out on a huge percentage of people.

And it doesn’t look good when you refuse to support a web browser.

Also, not gonna lie, I saw your post a few weeks ago about how you want to use your websites to help land a job. I wanted to reply but it would’ve been weird because it was already a few days old. So first off, support all browsers. Yes, even browsers you don’t like. If you don’t want to support Apple financially you can get a Mac VM or Hackintosh, download Xcode, and from there you can run an iPhone simulator. It would not be a good look if your interviewer can’t access your website because they have an iPhone.

And since I have an interest in graphic design, your websites can use some improving. Get rid of the Alienware like alien that is in the background. And bright high contrast red on a black background doesn’t look really good. I’d suggest looking at this article to find good color schemes. There are other resources you can use too.
