Cloudflare SSL is a joke. They don't encrypt the data all the way through, they only encrypts the data until they reaches the Cloudflare server.
The data is all open and public in the Cloudflare server and after that. Letsencrypt may sound hectic because you have reinstall it every three months but they atleast provide a real SSL certificate.

Letsecrypt is the best. It is good as any paid SSL's, even companies like hostgator directly refers to them.

Its because you have to setup the SSL in every three months properly. Otherwise, it won't work.
