Origin certificate not trusted

Hey there, I've been trying to use Cloudflare's SSL certificates for a website. I was previously using Porkbun's integrated SSL service, which worked fine, but required updating the certificates when they expired. I'm not sure if this is the correct use of Cloudflare, so please let me know.

Otherwise, I've set the SSL/TLS encryption mode to full strict, I have an active universal certificate, and an origin certificate set to expire in 15 years, with the rest staying on default config. I've installed it on my server, and it seems to work (at least according to this ), except that browsers spit out "Your connection is not private" with NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID. The subdomain in question says that it is proxied in the DNS config, that being the main difference from threads with this issue that I've found online. Any help appreciated!
