^^ this. PLEASE. :-(
Bitbucket has been rotting since Atlassian bought them, and now there's really no "killer app" for Mercurial hosting. There are Mercurial hosting services out there, but nothing anywhere close to Github/Gitlab.
You should check out RhodeCode. It's no hosting platform, but hosting it yourself is much better. It support Mercurial, and all latest things that comes with it like phases, largefiles etc.
Actually since BK is now opensource we might think of adding a BK backend to RhodeCode and our VCS abstraction layer that already supports GIT, Mercurial and Subversion
We would love that. Contact dev@bitkeeper.org if you have any questions/issues.
doesn't github support mercurial?
Nope, but Bitbucket does support git.
