When messaging, people may use "hm" as an abbreviation for "home." For example, a person may message you, "My hm tel is 123-456-7890."
While people typically use hm to refer to the place in which they live, they may also use it to refer to other types of homes, like a home webpage or a home base in a game. For example, a developer may message you, "Can you update the hm page?" or "Catch you back at hm base."
Remember that someone unfamiliar with the abbreviation may think you are just saying, "hm," as if you are contemplating something. That could lead to some interesting misunderstandings.
Example
What is your hm address so I can mail you the card?
I just moved and don't remember the address. I'll send it when I look it up after the meeting
The friendly confines of hm
