Whois integration error: "This tld has either no whois server or responds only with minimal information"

The problem

Hi, I am trying to configure a Whois integration for my personal duckdns.org subdomain (if needed, ask for the name in DM) However I get the error "This tld has either no whois server or responds only with minimal information"

Is this error as expected? Should you not be able to add a duckdns subdomain?
