Perhaps related same for duckduckgo image, duckduckgo videos and duckduckgo news: these engines don't work.

we use ddg-lite for ddg-WEB .. ddg-lite does no longer have (need) a vqd value (ddg's bot protection) .. images, videos and news from ddg still use bot protection based on the vqd value .. I'm working on a solution.

based on the vqd value .. We can't get any longer vqd from lite.duckduckgo.com /
