Instead of commenting on a PR, open a branch

Gumroad has adopted an interesting idea:

For example, instead of writing a comment on a pull request (PR), engineers and designers are now encouraged to commit to a branch instead of leaving comments.

There are often better ways to do things and this is an example of how you can streamline the feedback process. Yes, it takes some humility to be on the receiving end of this type of process, but all great things do.
