That's not particularly strange; it's common for different service
providers to support different SSL versions and cipher suites.

The first thing to check is to run `update-crypto-policies --set
LEGACY`. If it works then, the issue is that the server is only
offering an SSL version and/or cipher suite that is insecure by
reasonably current standards (Fedora's default policy, 'DEFAULT'). In
that case it should be possible to figure out what the server needs and
come up with a more limited policy carve-out that will allow the server
to keep working with the smallest possible reduction in security for
other connections; leaving the level at LEGACY isn't great if you can
avoid it.
