That's great! I noticed that since this posting, Phabricator is no longer actively maintained. Do you maintain an in-house fork?

Yea, Phacility no longer maintains Phabricator. However, we have been maintaining an internal fork for 3-4 years (often behind upstream). Our fork has improvements to address performance issues, scalability and integrations with many of our internal tools such as SubmitQueue.

Phab is still the defacto tool used for Code review and its integration. Task management was migrated from Manifest to JIRA last year. However, before the impending doom was announced by Phacility, we had already begun evaluating alternatives. We've issued notices to internal teams relying on Phab APIs to prepare room for a rewrite down the line. I surmise, a good couple of years before Phab is completely buried at Uber.
