Which URLs are blocked and who blocks them? (self.newtolemmy)

A couple of times I've tried making posts and got an error of "Lemmy: blocked URL". As the first time it happened was with a post with multiple links, I didn't know which site was the problem.

The second time with just one link, "Oh, it's Blogspot." (IIRC, a completely different blog, and on a different /c.)

How can I find out which URLs are blocked, so as to not waste my time trying to post them?
Who is it blocking them?
- individual communities?
- the instance of the community?
- my instance? (lemmy.ca)
- all Lemmy everywhere all at once?
I guess I'm out of the loop, why is Blogspot blocked?

Thanks! I was looking in a user's profile, right-clicking in various places etc.
