I’ve heard anecdotes of people using an entirely internal domain like “plex.example.com” even if it’s never exposed to the public internet, google might flag it as impersonating plex. Google will sometimes block it based only on name, if they think the name is impersonating another service.

Its unclear exactly what conditions cause a site to get blocked by safe browsing. My nextcloud.something.tld domain has never been flagged, but I’ve seen support threads of other people having issues and the domain name is the best guess.
