so a question about u-featured. That can be done at the theme level, but a new user might not know that. Should it be in the bridgy-publish plugin or just documented?

to clarify this is a WP related question.

I feel I heard about this a while ago, but I'm wondering how many companies will shift to their own TLDs e.g. https://blog.google/topics/diversity/our-focus-pay-equity/

They wanted google.blog but automattic got that

I'm a little worried about what happens when these new tlds realise that they aren't selling many domains and Jack up the prices to renew

They have a big sunk cost to get a tld in the first place, so if they aren't selling they will try and gouge existing users. Then they'll go bankrupt and someone else will buy the domain from them I suppose.

between that and adding `u-featured` to WP featured images, feel a little productive
#
[jeremycherfas]
miklb You had to go into the database? I thought you could do that with a filter in custom functions.php
#
miklb
[jeremycherfas] well, WP stores the oembed html in the database
KevinMarks joined the channel

[jeremycherfas]
No, I get that, but in my reading around — prior to actually doing something — I’ve only seen fixes for `functions.php`

miklb
oh, yeah, I am actually doing it in the kind.php file at the moment. Just meant I'm filtering the postmeta stored in the DB

[jeremycherfas]
Well, as I say, I haven’t actually done anything myself, because I’d actually like to include an audio player in the oEmbed for my podcast site. And I haven’t had clear time to try it.

Loqi

#
[jeremycherfas]
cleverdevil Do you do health/tracking on open source apps? If so, which? Everything I look at that seems reasonably straightforward is proprietary, even if they do have export formats.
#
[cleverdevil]
jeremycherfas I use my iPhone and Apple Watch, and I was making some good progress on finding some open APIs that could sync the data up and make it possible.
#
[cleverdevil]
But, I ran out of steam.
#
[cleverdevil]
What is health?
#
Loqi
Health is an iOS app from Apple that allows users to track data collected by HealthKit, which includes things like sleep tracking, heart rate, steps, exercises, and more, which are collected via the Apple Watch and the iPhone https://indieweb.org/Health
#
[cleverdevil]
I put some info on that page, specifically was looking at HumanAPI.
#
[cleverdevil]
What is HumanAPI?
#
Loqi
HumanAPI is a platform for real-time access to digital, structured health and medical data, including from mobile devices and apps https://indieweb.org/HumanAPI
#
[cleverdevil]
I'm pretty sure that is the way to go. It connects with a bunch of different health and fitness devices and platforms, standardizes their data, and makes it available through an open API.
#
[eddie]
ohhh, so if we made an OwnYourHealth that connected to HumanAPI, we would be able to support more people than just iOS?
#
[cleverdevil]
Yes, that was exactly my thinking.
#
[jeremycherfas]
I don’t have an Apple watch, and track with Garmin and Cyclemeter. Recently joined Strava, which shares from Cyclemeter very well. Garmin just crashes. Ideally if I had everything in Strava, I’d have one place to get data from.
#
[cleverdevil]
IIRC, HumanAPI connects with Strava.
#
[jeremycherfas]
I think I remember seeing that.
snarfed joined the channel
#
[eddie]
Oh yeah, they’ve got awesome integration
#
Loqi
ok, I added "http://hub.humanapi.co/v1.0/page/apple-health-data" to the "See Also" section of /Health
thebaer joined the channel
#
[jeremycherfas]
cleverdevil Actually, it looks like the simplest route for me would be to push everything from Strava into Health.
