Edit file /etc/blocky/blocky.yml according to upstream documentation. Then start & enable blocky.service.

For example, this is how my /etc/blocky/blocky.yml file looks like:

upstream:
    externalResolvers:
      - https://security.cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query

blocking:
    # definition of blacklist groups. Can be external link (http/https) or local file
    blackLists:
      blocklists:
        - http://sysctl.org/cameleon/hosts
        - https://dbl.oisd.nl/
        - https://mirror1.malwaredomains.com/files/justdomains

There's an issue with the service file: /usr/lib/systemd/system/blocky.service

To fix it:

sudo sed -i -e 's/network-online.target/multi-user.target/' /usr/lib/systemd/system/blocky.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable blocky --now

Every time I start my computer I have to restart blocky otherwise it won't work. I even double checked if I "enabled" the blocky service.
