Sure, at the very beginning of the launch of Git, Mercurial was better/had more features/more mature/etc.

That's just not true after 20 years of mainstream git adoption and development today.

    Mercurial is also simpler than Git and the commands are more intuitive

    Neither of those observations, even if true, are an incentive for someone to migrate away from git.

    They are true (I bet you never used mercurial) and you must learn how to read: Where did I wrote to migrate from Git to mercurial? Having alternatives is good

    You're proselytizing mercurial in a thread full of git users. Migration is implied in your comment, even if you didn't literally use those words.

    "Simpler" is not necessarily an improvement and might actually be a downside. "Intuitive" is not universal and might not even be accurate for other people with different experiences.

    I read just fine. Maybe you must learn to chill.
