Mixin vs Ring Size

Historically, many SE tags have been inspired from Monero source code (see , , and other examples).

I followed the conversation related to this pull request on Reddit and similarly would like to rename to ring size on stack exchange.

The pull request referenced above only encompasses a visual change in the GUI aimed at making Monero terminology easier to understand for those that may not understand it.

Before proposing a more drastic pull request (removing mixin from all Monero source code) why not test ring-size on Stack Exchange first to see how it is received.

I created a synonym for . Going forward either tag can be used. I wont merge the tags until we have reached broad consensus, but if grows in popularity here that could be a signal to Monero developers that a more drastic pull request to remove "mixin" from the codebase would be well received.

Any thoughts on this?
