Looking for feedback on my new website

I didn't quite know what your site was supposed to be saying, to be honest. Is it a blog, a portfolio, a product-hunt like page? I really wasn't sure.
After reading a bit I figured it's a little bit of everything, which is kind of confusing because I feel not many people would stay long as long as I did to figure out.
The words "personal" on the page or in the header would help me a little bit to get where I think you are aiming at the site.
Your design was great, although I feel I'm missing some of it because the mobile site only has the "basic" version. That said, the splash page and the basic page are like two different sites, so that is very jarring for users, it was for me.
I was also confused about the buy me a coffee link, because most of the content appeared to be things you wanted to write about, and I get you may be looking for some extra side money (we all are), but seeing that link made me feel like you need to be a bit more focused on your target. My question was why would I tip you, I didn't know what quite you were providing in content on the site. My main driver for saying that was the loading bar on the home page, where it then took me to am about you page. Hard to understand in that flow what the site is about to me.
I tried to be frank here, I hope this provides you feedback whether you take my words or not. God bless you and have a good day.
You are correct about the case studies. I wanted to get a basic version out first and add them as I go along. Super appreciate the feedback :)
1. If I click a window, it gets brought to the front. Awesome. if I click it again, it gets sent to the back!! Not cool.
2. Consider holding off on getting me to buy you a coffee. Having that popup upfront, before I've had a chance to explore the website, doesn't make a lot of sense. Consider displaying it after 30-60 seconds, and adding an icon to the dock.
And totally agree on #1, trying to resolve the bug there. Super appreciate the nice words and feedback! :)
Appreciate the feedback :)
