A couple days ago my discord bot suddenly went offline, i host my bot through repl.it and i cant get it to work as it gives a dirty error.

this is in the console and i dont know what it means. we didnt change any code, nothing it just went offline and stop working.
Just update the discord.py module. Discord switched the api domain from discordapp.com to discord.com. That is the reason for the code crashing.
