Tyler the Creator famously tweeted "Hahahahahahahaha How The F* Is Cyber Bullying Real Hahahaha ** Just Walk Away From The Screen Like ** Close Your Eyes Haha."

Seems like a ridiculous statement (and definitely doesn't address the real issue of cyberbullying)...

_but_ when it comes to open-source, that's my exact attitude. Notifications off, users opening issues and pull requests? May as well not exist. I'll occasionally check but that's it.

The easiest answer is that deep down you need to accept that you can only be "tortured" by the incessant, needy, unfair demands of your users if you choose to. If you can't handle it, disable it, archive your project, walk away.
