Yes, this is certainly true. I've seen GitHub stars used as either (1) "likes", or (2) a tech to try todo list. A good git host agnostic app that covers both use cases could probably abstract enough that you could host on Bitbucket, GitLab, etc and still have people notice.
That said, if you use any of the services that provide a free hacker tier to open source projects, many only do that for GitHub projects today.
One workaround is to actually use another host, but mirror it back to GitHub.
