I hear this with dismay. When I wanted to view the repository online in the past, I always ended up heading to git.wikimedia.org, since I was unable to *find* the repository at phabricator. At most, phabricator showed a somewhat related diffusion commit.
Phabricator site search includes repositories. I agree that parts of Phabricator, including the repository index at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/, can be annoying to find currently.
Gitblit may not be the most suited software regarding technical stability, but diffusion is far from having an acceptable UI, I'm afraid.
The Git repositories are also mirrored to GitHub, of course. Many people are already on GitHub for other projects and seem to enjoy, or at least tolerate, its user interface. I wonder if we have an index of Git mirrors.
It's also possible for anyone to set up their own online Git repository browser (e.g., GitLab or Gogs) or contribute patches upstream to Phabricator Diffusion to add missing features.
