Same here. Especially if I need to browse code and/or to communicate to
somebody about it - especially somebody outside MediaWiki community
(which means probably not trained with tools like gerrit but most
probably having some familiarity with github because who doesn't have it
these days?) - I almost always use github. If we have something better,
I'd use it - but right now neither gerrit, nor gitblt, nor phabricator's
code browser are superior to what github offers.

Now, having something like wikimedia.github.io would be an excellent
idea. If somebody would do the design, loading up repos list and
displaying them with a nice structure - given that we actually have
pretty structured names already, so we could start from that - should
not be super-hard?
