To clarify, I’m asking why when it is winter IN the southern hemisphere, why is it milder than winters in the northern.

Not asking why are the seasons reversed.

The north pole is a frozen sea surrounded by land.

The south pole is a frozen land surrounded by sea.

Land freezes easier than salt water.

More land around the pole means more freezing.

More sea around the pole means less freezing.
