To be fair, hardly anyone ever used Bitbucket due to Mercurial support.
Some people probably used it because for awhile, pre-GitLab, it was the GitHub alternative with the most generous free tier for private repos.
However, the overwhelming majority of users probably use it because they're already in the Atlassian ecosystem due to JIRA.
