The release of QGIS 3 has brought many updates, one significant change is its Python bindings or as it's more commonly known as PyQGIS. I have noticed the recent introduction of the tag, here is a quick comparison with the number of posts with the original tag as of today:

I was wondering whether these two tags should be merged so that it is the equivalent to where the version of the main software makes no difference?

I would argue that should not be a synonym of because with QGIS 3, pyqgis uses python3 and Qt5 (as compared to Python2 and Qt4).

The difference is significant, and there are many breaking API changes so that answers to the two tags may not be compatible. If only one tag is used, there will be confusion.

In a similar situation for openlayers, and coexist. Maybe something similar is applicable here..

I'd agree that should be a synonym of , and you should suggest it (I don't have enough pyqgis rep to do so myself). but we'll need a mod to create it since SE thinks it's a version specific tag.

After that, it could be merged like the other synonyms we have, although possibly at a later date.
