 When a Post is published, we create an Activity item for it and create an
 excerpt. If multiple images are in the post, we have some parsing logic
 that handles replacing the images with a single thumbnail image. The
 Activity Stream supports oEmbed and runs shortcodes, so those kinds of
 embedded content are richly embedded into the Activity Stream.

 I believe we should iterate on the parsing logic to better extract media
 content from Posts, and use that to create better presented (and more
 interact-able) Activity items.

 For an example, here’s a test site with BuddyPress 2.1.1 and WP’s theme
 unit test import data imported: http://www.stencilsplugin.com/activity/.
 The type of posts which I think BP should do a better job of presenting
 are demo’d here: https://imgur.com/a/f2b4T and https://imgur.com/VxQsXI9
