Not broken per se, but it's more friction and less tightly integrated. Although I'm not actually after better social tools myself - I'm more interested in CI integration.
I've tried travis in the past on github for C# projects - and immediately hit their mono installation not supporting even building my MSTest projects. Now I'm using gitlab for their CI integration - their runner model may be way simpler for the purposes of building (I just feed it shell scripts I write myself), and in practice requires me to admin my own servers for private on-windows CI builds, but I was going to have to do that anyways. (Also, several of them are just my workstations configured to run CI builds in the background.) And it works. Even better, the build status gets nicely integrated into the commit history.
