I run a Discord bot that uses this API for dictionary definitions. It began throwing errors about "Attempt to decode JSON with unexpected mimetype", and I looked on the API which is no longer returning any definitions at all. The other URL seems to still work fine, however.

I have hosted API on AWS now, it won't have stability issues now.

This is the homepage. https://dictionaryapi.dev.

Way to query API has been changed a little:

Usage : The basic syntax of a URL request to the API is shown below:

https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v1/entries/<--language_code-->/<--word-->

As an example, to get definition of English word hello, you can send request to

https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v1/entries/en/hello
