As stated.

I cannot even put duckduckgo.com in the address bar and get there. It just times out.

No problem getting to other sites.

I disconnected my VPN and DDG works fine again.

I changed the location for my VPN and DDG works fine.

Is DDG blocking some VPN addresses?

Anyway, apparently a VPN/DDG issue?
