Hi Peter, Not an exact Google-o-Meter replacement, but QuickChart supports a radial gauge visualization type. For example:
https://quickchart.io/chart?c={type:'radialGauge' ,data:{datasets:[{data:[70],backgroundColor:'green'}]}} <https://quickchart.io/chart?c={type:%27radialGauge%27,data:{datasets:[{data:[70],backgroundColor:%27green%27}]}}> The QuickChart <https://quickchart.io/> rendering service is based on Chart.js <https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/configuration/title.html> and the chartjs-chart-radial-gauge plugin <https://www.npmjs.com/package/chartjs-chart-radial-gauge>, so it can be customized according to the options in the documentation. Feel free to open an issue on the Github repo <https://github.com/typpo/quickchart> if you need help or clarification.
