I used it for a while, then after a couple of failures decided to whip up my own at https://geocode.xyz/myip

Took me 5 minutes of work and exactly one line of code.

There's a lot more helpful info you can return, too. Try https://ifconfig.me. Works great in bash scripts too, as it only returns the IP when called with a curl user agent.
