I would also like to point out (as a heavy user of both platforms) that BitBucket has outages that do not 'register' as an outage.

There are issues like hanging on pull requests/merges at random or not loading the diff.

Frustrating.

GitHub has this issue, too. Try doing a PR on GH when the diff is reasonably large. We get 500s from them when trying to review anything worth doing. That and the inability to set permissions on branches have prevented us from moving from self-hosted Gitolite to GH full time.

You should try BitBucket, just too see how hard it bails on you.
