Shameless but relevant plug: if you’re a Xoogler and you miss Critique check out CodeApprove (https://codeapprove.com).

CodeApprove was built to make GitHub PRs a lot more appealing to those who miss the Critique workflow (among others audiences).

Almost 1.5 years in, here is my opinion on Critique:

Github < Critique < Azure DevOps (or actually, I think it's called Azure Repos)*

*might have changed because I was at MSFT until mid 2021, but development and review used to look sort of like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGCid5W-HK0. I just felt the UX was really clean and clear, plus it immediately tied into the walled garden of tools like private package repos, CI, and Azure deployments.

Azure UX? Yikes. Please include this in your job description as a warning.

To answer your question, Azure Devops / Azure Repos (at least at the time) was not inside the Azure portal. It was its own website. Bit of a confusing name, eh?
