Thank God we're on Bitbucket! Right, guys? Anyone?
Additionally, it should be easy to learn and have a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance. It should outclass SCM tools like Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and ClearCase with features like cheap local branching, convenient staging areas, and multiple workflows.
That would be a significant upgrade.

In an ideal world, a link to a source code repository (or a link to anything for that matter...) would never fail because there would be automatic mirrors to at least provide read-only access to it.
It sort of forces one to ask whether this is the result of fundamental mistakes within HTTP / DNS itself. It's not realistic for a web designer to put time into making external links fault tolerant by running some query to switch the routing link to an available node.

:-) IPFS includes an optional http gateway to give the traditional web access to IPFS before browsers support the IPFS protocol natively.

We would get these detailed as fuck responses on why one project (BitBucket) is worth more to the developer than GitHub instead of these little jabs at why it is better. I want thoughtful responses.
If there was a duplicate response, the employee that responds to various threads online can link them to their answers.
This isn't even directed at you @ntaylor. I think it's an exploitable marketing strategy. A clear example of this is Katie from PornHub. /u/Katie_PornHub (or whatever the user name is) posts on reddit, which in tern gets more interest in PornHub. PornHub is basically using reddit for free advertising.
Basically. I want to know WHY something is better than something else, and that WHY is with as much detail as possible with a lot of thought put into it. Give me a pros and const list between the two. Anything but two good things about it.

Holy fuck, this would just add a human element to advertising. You hire humans to serve ads to people. Whenever "GitHub" is mentioned, and you have a competing better service, their only job is to advertise your service to anyone have problems with the other service.
In cases like these, it always seems to happen naturally. Humans are willingly advertising for free, when they could be paid for it.
The downfall of the internet:
> We make up the ad network
> It carries us far;
> however---giants must fall.
This would only get you so far. What if a user has a question? How will you help them out if it's a bit. The solution?
Write API's for every site that you want to use. You can either scrape every site for responses that fit your criteria, or let google do the digging for you with the "as it happens" notifications which would indicate that you have to scrape that site for the information.
If the information you get from the site is something you want to respond to, you can.

Holy fucking shit.
I just described a system that would allow for you to use all websites as inboxes for chat messages.

Refine:
With this early model, we would have one program on our machine that would understand X websites. It can parse user comments directed at us from a website (A). It can send responses back to A, and so on.
Now, users on Program X can chat with theoretically any person on any website (A, B, ...), but users of website A can only chat with other people on website A OR people using Program X.
Why doesn't everyone use program X? Because it does not exist yet.
