Only for specific projects. I continue to use "master" for my own projects, because I disagree that the proposed reason to change has merit.
> Now we have people advocating to change BACK to master.
For the existing projects of others? Can you show any examples?

Disbelief does not constitute an argument.

I won't speak for the other poster, but as a matter of simple fact, Git was initially released in 2005, while other VCSes using the term may date as far back as 1969 (https://retrocomputing.stackexchange.com/questions/21859/); the concept of audio mastering dates to at least the 1920s with the introduction of the microphone (per the Wikipedia link), and in turn presumably has its roots in the idea of a "master copy" of text or artwork to be printed.
