Up to version 5.5 MariaDB and MySQL can be considered as “the same” databases. The official wording at those times was “drop-in-replacement”. But now we are a few years later and times and features changed. Also the official wording has slightly changed to just “compatible”.
FromDual recommends that you consider MariaDB 10.3 and MySQL 8.0 as completely different database products (with some common roots) nowadays. Thus you should work and act accordingly.
