It most definitely works on my local machine, however I was able to confirm youtube import does not work my cloud instance.

I am getting the same error message using a local searxng web search. It appears as though this error occurs in my case when it tries to fetch the same url for a second time. Are you able to confirm that you have the same issue on various youtube URLs?
