Perhaps it'd be good to have a template that open source projects can use to set expectations, or a badge or something. Based on your suggestion it could be something like

I consider this project

    - actively developed
    - a toy
    - finished
    - still interesting to me
    - no longer something I expect to progress
I will / will not review PRs [unless they are Security / some category].

Your best option if you would like changes is

    - raise a PR
    - ping me
    - fork it
    - use a different project
    - pay me
My attitude to forks is

   - The more the merrier
   - A necessary evil
   - I'd like to avoid them for this project if possible
   - Not allowed by the license
