It's funny that Firefox works, but Chrome doesn't; considering 
both browsers implemented said security.

It has to do with SSL, where it seems Chrome doesn't think you 
have a secure connection.

The problem does lie with you however and there are a couple of 
things you can do to fix it (I'm not entirely sure what exactly.)

The fact other sites work is irrelevant since the issue only 
exist after the certificate of a site expires. Chances are the 
other sites you've visited hasn't had their certificates expired 
recently as most certificates are usually valid for 1-2 years at 
least. Unless it's LetsEncrypt, then it's valid for 3 months.
