There is both this post about not being able to delete a curl, and other posts about being able to delete curls unauthenticated. Looks like you should be able to issue a DELETE curl request, to delete your curl.
Going down the protocol route here - this would be more like Sony blocking game developers from allowing interoperability between Playstations and Xboxes. Crossplay is most definitely a thing - without requiring Xbox versions of games running on Sony hardware.
It works like this if you're simply using the Apple Workouts app on your watch, instead of the Strava app. If you use the Strava app, it'll upload directly, as well as, write to your Health data. If you use Apple Workouts, it'll detect the workout for Import (if you don't automatically import), and read that from Health.
It’s really a great solution in a long-running job situation, the more I think about it. Especially on your point about setting up infrastructure. Email, in this case, is effectively a webhook handler for their results. Doesn’t require the end user to maintain the endpoint though, and can leverage the existing redelivery attempts, etc. May not be the “coolest” - but leverages decades of accumulated knowledge and reusable solutions.
That applies to basically any hobby though right? The perceived depth of the hobby is largely dependent on your desire to explore that depth. It can be incredibly deep for some, as evidenced by people designing their own switches - or shallow (for you) by saying Cherry is good enough.
This simply reminds me of the absolute graveyard of Logitech M570s that I’m holding on to for some reason. A couple have worn out switches, others need cleaned. Love the thumb trackball.
.xyz has a public resolver for ETH addresses for browsers so - foo.eth - you could type in foo.eth.xyz and it'll resolve to a placeholder of sorts for information in the .eth profile (pointers to wallets, Twitter handles, NFTs currently held, etc). I think it's interesting in the "online business card" sense - but not too much beyond that.
EDIT: Apologies - as pointed out below - not my intent to align the site with the TLD - I could have worded that better. I think the ___domain is more likely a product of the ENS team, but I don't know for certain.
I imagine this is just a website with the ___domain eth.xyz and with some subdomain shenanigans. You make it sound like it's sponsored by the TLD or something.

It is though.
> Eth.xyz was created for the ENS community with love by the XYZ Registry, the company behind .xyz ___domain names. The project is open for contribution or feedback on GitHub. Send us a message @xyz on Twitter! [1]
It's kind of neat, but seems like a registry taking on a lot of extra liability that they typically don't have as a ___domain registry. Putting a disclaimer on the sites doesn't exempt them from the law.

So what gain does the blockchain get you? XYZ isn't judgement proof like the blockchain, so they'll have to follow the current laws for trademarks, copyrights, etc.. If the blockchain isn't adding any revolutionary tech, is slower, is expensive, and is only accessible using gateways that are subjected to current laws, what's the appeal?
I think blockchain domains are detrimental to the existing system, so I don't get why XYZ would help try to legitimize them. They're not even promoting XYZ. They're literally encouraging customers to go buy a .eth ___domain where XYZ doesn't have any control or make any money.
It's probably well intentioned and I like seeing XYZ making an effort to do more than maintain the status quo, but there are better ways to promote domains than jumping on the blockchain bandwagon in my opinion.
Limo has the same thing. If you go to `ensnamehere.eth.limo`, the backend will look up `ensnamehere.eth` and look for a record holding an `IPFS` or `IPNS` address, fetch it, and serve it to you. I host my personal site this way [0], although the process of resolving an IPNS name and fetching data over IPFS is too slow to be usable (takes about 30 seconds for me).
There's not really any advantage to this, because you have to trust `eth.limo`, but ENS names are in theory technically superior to traditional ___domain names, so I'm excited about this development. For instance, in theory ENS names have no need for certificate authorities for instance, or centralized registrars that we have to socially pressure every few years not to sell .org to a private company or whatever.
For me - it becomes an agenda when they’re collecting the information for no other reason than to collect the information - or - they’re using the field to show how progressive they are. Unless gendering language is somehow critical to the operation of the software - why collect it at all? I have the same feeling about birthdays - I’m automatically assuming it’s because you have “sell customer data” on the 5-year business plan.
