Have you checked if statement-based replication works from mysql to mariadb?
I'm hung up on unrecognized charset #255. Tried rolling everything back to utfmb3; suppose I could go all the way to Latin1. I imagine there's a lot of depth I could learn, but dropping mariadb for mysql seems like the path of least resistance right now.
eta: got the character set sorted. Had to make a new dump, confirm that everything in the dump was utf8mb3, then re-prime the replica with that data. Wasn't enough just to change the character sets internally.
So it works now! Good job
