I miss the Phabricator review UI so much.
Same here. Don't understand why Github hasn't supported this until now. I'm tired of reviewing PRs with thousands of lines of changes, which are getting worse nowadays with vibe coding.
What does Facebook use internally these days. I'm amazed that the state of review tools is still at or behind what we had a decade ago for the most part.
It’s still phabricator
Any idea if their internal version has improved dramatically since they stopped maintaining the public version?
It has improved massively by 2023 when I left.
I don't think they ever maintained the public project. Priestly spun off a company to do that.
Me too. And I'm speaking from using it at Rdio 15 years ago.
Nothing since (Gerrit, Reviewboard, Github, Critique) has measured up...
Thanks for your work on Rdio. I miss it. Were you around when that guy managed to spam plays to get fake albums to the top of the charts?
Why not use gerrit? It's pretty similar.
is it? it's insanely ugly and interactions seem bizarre
Previous iterations have been a bit dated in terms of UI, but modern versions are pretty good. What interactions are bizzare? Leaving comments, approving a change and running presubmit tests are all pretty straightforward.
