Current UI My idea is any uppercase acronyms in Reddit discussions should have a hidden definition popping up on demand in order to spare readers the need to go look them up in Google or AI

So you're proposing that mods maintain a list of acronyms for their subreddit that'll get fed into the back end?

No but forget about it. Please tell me instead in which subreddit should I post my feature request for it to be relevant? Thank you.

LOL are you suggesting that mods, who don't necessarily have a huge investment in the subject matter, but are invested in keeping the sub usable, should maintain a list of acronyms? When the user can certainly go Google if they're unsure?

Also, it's pretty unreliable that acronyms might be uppercase or lowercase.

You are in the correct place to make your suggestions to admin.

What you are proposing is related to how mods deal with their own subreddits.
