As a user, I want to get application/json response format by default if I request an API url in my browser

🧑‍🔬 User Persona(s)

💪 Motivation

...so that I can see well defined json and that possibly my browser plugin help me to explore it.

📖 Additional Details

A plugin which should work on the API response is https://github.com/callumlocke/json-formatter

⚖️ Acceptance Criteria

Given an API request
When I perform it in a web browser (Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari)
Then I expect to get a parsable JSON, which is understood by plugin https://github.com/callumlocke/json-formatter for example

⚙️ Engineering Details

In my Google Chrome browser on macos the request comes with Accept header value "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/webp,image/apng,/;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3;q=0.9"

I guess we should make the API return application/json when such Accept header is received. Maybe we should identify application/json as text/html.
