I prefer mercurial over git, but being on bitbucket is starting to feel like being on Orkut when everyone else is on Facebook. Even with this announcement I'll probably start all new personal projects on github for the better visibility and collaboration with the hacker community.
Yeah well... thanks to people like you bitbucket will struggle to gain bigger community. Why not start projects on bitbucket, and then if it will not work out, move to github?
I DID get help from other people and commited my patches to some projects on bitbucket(also did on git). It's not like you wont get help on bb - its just a tool in the end.
