the acronym DSM has quite a lot of meanings. providing the meaning of it in the github project description and the readme would be an easy-win for newcommers and for googlers.

DSM = DiskStation Manager according to https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/12blruq/virtual_dsm_for_docker/

Yes.. But I think very few people know that Synology DSM means DiskStation Manager. For example, Windows NT means Windows New Technology, but everybody recognizes the Windows NT name, and almost nobody knows that it stands for New Technology.

So I will consider your idea, but I do not think many people will Google for Diskstation Manager.

thanks for considering it.

it is not only for googlers but also for people like me, who came to this repo by an external link and ask themself what this repo is about.

just noticed that the external link was a comment by you xD https://github.com/dockur/windows/issues/182#issuecomment-1955759112
