If the upstream edk2 is so bad - have you tried to upstream your set of patches? It is good that your personal fork/repo is stable, but inevitably it will always lag behind the upstream, not benefiting from some new features and bugfixes. Same reason why I didn't want to fork a coreboot despite having a big set of unofficial patches , instead trying to upstream them when I have some free time.
