Phabricator is primarily aimed at teams with multiple approximately-full-time engineers working on projects together, and focuses more on scaling up to thousands of engineers than scaling down to personal projects. It may be a poor fit for your needs if you're looking to move very small projects away from GitHub following the acquisition by Microsoft.
Can you guys advertise more? I hear about Atlassian on NPR and my IT team has guys fully sold on their stuff but my team has been operating very cleanly off a Phabricator VM for years now. However IT keeps pushing me to go all Atlassian so they can "support it". I'm like, yo, git pull every few months to upgrade and keep the VM patched. They're like but Atlassian has conferences.
What should I do?
Supporting self hosted gets even more murky, documentation tends to be stale, updates tend to be in place and high availability is hit or miss.
For us, Crucible was a significant improvement over Phabricator in terms of daily use. My team had been trialing it for several months, and upon demoing it to other teams and our managers, convinced them it was worth switching.
I hope they will add a "git push"-based workflow to accommodate this use case.
