Whenever I set up the blocklist a while back, I had been using several of the "blocklist.site" entries. I didn't realize they had become stale over the past year as this was a set-and-forget thing. I saw the release notes mentioned deprecating the "blocklist.site" entries, but didn't give it a thought to remove those before upgrading. Once I upgraded, I found remains of those entries in my list, but since they were removed I could not clean that up. I'm not sure if it caused any further issues, but I just deleted and reconfigured my blocklist under Unbound. You can see in my screenshot the remnants of the "blocklist.site" entries that I once had.
So if you are still using any "blocklist.site" entries, I recommend removing those from your list before upgrading to 25.7.10.

Normally they continue to work until reconfigured, but since the recent blocklists changes require to move data around you're more or less forced into a reconfiguration. In this case the blocklists already stopped working.

are you using community or business edition?
i have used business edition for the use of my appliance and always used just the blocklist tab. then check those i wanted to use.
the extended i never used?
should i be reconsidering this (it doesn't show Hagazi) so it seems like a move backwards
I am using community edition. I don't know what the business edition includes as far as pre-defined selections, but if the "blocklist.site" lists are not being maintained and stale, I would suggest researching others in the drop down list to use instead.
For what its worth, I did notice under Reports --> Unbound that the count of block sites remained the same after the upgrade even though the actual selections are now removed from the blocklist section, so what franco indicated probably was accurate and that the existing "blocklist.site" lists were still active just with no way to remove until you reconfigure. For me, I decided to research other lists and just rebuild my custom blocklist profile. Not a big deal, especially if it removes stale lists that I was unaware.
I've also been using the emerging threats feed list for many years before switching to Opnsense platform. It is maintained by Proofpoint, so I use the .txt links in the custom blocklist site list: https://rules.emergingthreats.net
