Here is the uncropped image of the domain I blocked, but the non-SSL link still shows in my feed.

Try blocking in times.com and I bet you’ll get the same result. All results will disappear except this one.
It has nothing to do with the SSL.
You have to block the subdomains ( www.)
Could domain blocking automatically block the www subdomain?
No. Because some domains are serving different websites depending on the subdomains. It just an extra click for you.
