I'm having trouble with 30 or so repos. I shudder to think what 500 or more is like. Search every time? kind of not good.

Maybe there is a place for an "index" repo that holds a set of github pages that acts as an index into all the repos and groups them via that page instead of just using search.

One of our devs built a portal that does this that I think is easier to use than the normal GitHub search, http://cdcgov.github.io

I think most teams just know their repos and go to a small set of projects so don’t spend a lot of time browsing the org trying to find stuff.
