    GitHub makes this unnecessarily worse by refusing to let you disable Pull Requests like one can disable the other social features (Wiki etc) of a repository: https://github.com/dear-github/dear-github/issues/84

    The workaround is to use GH Actions to auto-close PRs: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/repo-lockdown

    And thank you for the link. I agree, automation is needed here. :) I'm using a different GitHub action: https://github.com/dessant/repo-lockdown
  • Ask HN: How did you recover from burnout?
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 28 Sep 2021
    Something that really helps me uncouple programming from burnout is having a strictly-non-collaborative personal project in a language/ecosystem I intentionally avoid in the professional world. It's still open source Free Software but I don't ever want a pull request or even a bug report because then it becomes work and means the codebase is no longer a 1:1 representation of my own brain-space/goals/style.

    Not that I have received any of those things, but I have steeled myself to be ready to turn it down if it ever does. The social pressure is real, and Github doesn't even let you disable pull requests so I had to configure a bot to automatically be an asshole for me: https://github.com/dessant/repo-lockdown

    Here's the message I configured in my `.github/lockdown.yaml`:

    ```comment: Please accept my apologies for your wasted effort in closing this pull request, but I am not prepared to accept changes on this project at this time, if ever. This is a personal project for my personal website that I'm happy to share, but I want the code to be all mine. I would not be able to mentally connect with my codebase as well if it were a reflection of anyone but myself, and accepting others' code complicates the copyright situation regardless of the software license used. Please e-mail me with any bug reports :)```
