A couple of weeks ago, I posted a thread here asking whether y’all could make use of Decronym the acronym explainer bot, and reaction was positive.

I finally got around to setting up an initial version of the database earlier today, so Decronym is now running; this post links to the current list of 40 or so acronyms that have definitions, based almost entirely on acronyms that been used in the pinned “What do you selfhost” thread.

If I’ve made glaring errors or omissions, do let me know and the database can be updated. Otherwise, let’s see how this thing fares.

    Since this is /c/selfhosted, it would be a good idea to add “HA - HomeAssistant, a popular automation software” to the list. Another one id “LXC - Linux Containers”

      HA can stand for High Availability as well, depends on the context.

        Yeah, I’d argue HA is more established as high availability than home assistant but that could be my networking side talking.
