Not sure if someone mentioned it already but I also used bitbucket in the past and found it very easy to use with a similar offering as github.

We use it at work and it's fine, but they just removed the issue tracker and forced us over to Jira.
I like bitbucket too, it's been really awesome and clean. No idea why everyone favored GitHub, but I had to have accounts on both for university and work
I really liked bitbucket, it's my favorite git management system I've used for real production work and it allows for self hosting. Self hosting is also way faster than gitlab from what I remember
Bitbucket was the perfect alternative. I used it back in the day when they were the only ones who offered free private repos. Ahead of their time.
GH beat them on UI/UX and the PR workflow I think. Really nothing more than having a better ~$120k Product Designer working there. Kinda funny what actually makes people stick with 1 choice over another. Very often it’s just having better UI/UX, or offering something useful for free.
It’s interesting how under the radar Bitbucket is these days.
I use it at work alongside GitHub (patchwork of merged companies).
There are random little things I like about it better than GitHub, especially in an enterprise setting.
And it has never gone down in my entire tenure at this company, while GitHub is like a weekly outage nightmare these days.
Atlassian is doing a whole lot of strange and desperate stuff lately including some pretty insane UI changes in Jira and their other products, but Bitbucket seems like it’s been neglected the exact right amount for it to be a pretty decent choice.
