Most of the organizations still on Phabricator all seems to be switching to Phorge (https://phorge.it/).
I understand why Mozilla can't/won't go that route, but seeing organizations attempt to duct-tape solution together with Bugzilla, Phabricator, Jenkins and whatnot makes you appreciate what Atlassian has done with Jira, Bamboo and Bitbucket (even if Bamboo and Bitbucket aren't exactly industry leading). I suppose that Phabricator was intended to be a Jira/Bitbucket/Gerrit alternative of sorts, but just failed to get the required traction to survive.
It's not just open source projects, way to many companies are attempting to knit something together and they end up with this unholy mess of systems that sort of communicate, but not really. The saving grace is actually Git, because everything works with Git.
