At work I use Bitbucket, i use GitHub for personal projects but not for any team based work or any projects at scale. Just wondering what are the features that make GitHub/GitLab better? what am i missing?

One personal gripe I have is that the UX for reviewing a PR commit by commit is non-existent in Bitbucket. Github recognises that a commit is part of a PR and gives you next and previous buttons to move between the commits in the PR. Draft PRs are also a great Github feature.

Isn't there a drop-down in Bitbucket that lets you choose between commits?

I'm amazed bitbucket hasn't got a move on and actually made the product good since Github and Gitlab are 10000x better and speeding away at rocket pace.

Don't forget that the bitbucket you use at work (the on-prem one) is a completely different product to the one that runs on bitbucket.com. The on-prem one used to be called Stash but Atlassian in their infinite wisdom decided that having two products with the same name was a good idea.

The on-prem bitbucket is just too basic to really be worth it. Github is much nicer. Gitlab is not even comparable. It's an all in one CI tool that's miles ahead of anything Atlassian offer.

There is with on-prem bitbucket (formerly Stash).

Annoyingly there isn't on gitlab. It's such a pain for us that it's stopping us moving to gitlab.

Sorry, just to be clear i was talking about bitbucket.com

We started out on Bitbucket due to their free tier and haven’t moved on since. Generally it does the job, but then again we’re not really using a lot of the fancy features. To us the biggest issue is the speed. The user interface just feels slow compared to eg. GitHub.

This is an issue with most Atlassian products. The UI feels like molasses. Github is far, far more speedy.

At some point Atlassian will probably throw in the towel and sell off Bitbucket like they sold off HipChat.

I'm quite sure about that because at some point they'll have to admit they can't keep up anymore.

What I dislike about this behaviour is that parts of it (bitbucket, hipchat) are good and they just throw everything away they don't use instead of open sourcing it.

Hey, is this the feature you'd like to have in GitLab https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/39380? It's already being evaluated, actually it's a WIP.

GitLab had the really cool CI/CD features before Bitbucket was getting some attention in this area.

Also you have to differentiate Stash (on-prem; Java) and Bitbucket (on-demand [if it works haha]; Python).

Bitbucket was meant to be used with Bamboo for pipelining so it was just a GUI for managing repos.

GitLab is open source! That is a big advantage in itself.

For some more take a look at this: https://about.gitlab.com/devops-tools/bitbucket-vs-gitlab.ht...
