whois shows mitchmalone.design is still using Porkbun DNS

% whois mitchmalone.design | grep -i 'name server'
Name Server: curitiba.ns.porkbun.com
Name Server: salvador.ns.porkbun.com
Name Server: fortaleza.ns.porkbun.com
Name Server: maceio.ns.porkbun.com

as does a dig trace

% dig mitchmalone.design +trace | tail -n 6

as per [Support Guide] How to detect and fix inactive Netlify DNS zones

Delegate in this instance means setting the Nameservers to Netlify’s as in the screenshot. However, this isn’t (as shown above) actually the case.

If using Netlify DNS, no CNAME is required, only when using external DNS.

I might try that and get the domain configured using external DNS first (that requires removing the Netlify NS records.) Once that is working, try delegating to Netlify again.

Edit
This is the official Porkbun documentation for changing nameservers
