I use a branch to do the work and then I send myself a PR to merge to main. This forces me into a context shift from "developer" to "reviewer". There's a lot of things my eyes will just drift past in my editor that I will flag when I'm explicitly doing quality control.

I also do this. One main branch and thousands of short-lived feature branches (e.g. enhance/add-profile-component) which get closed immediately after PR.
