I wish I could turn off Issues without archiving a repo

Maybe I am misunderstanding you somehow, but you can turn off Issues without archiving a repository, I have several like that. If I attempt to navigate to `/issues`, it redirects me to `/pulls`. And the Issues tab is not visible whatsoever.

Have you tried `/settings` -> Features -> [ ] Issues ?

I wasn’t aware of that, thanks! Is it there for some time already or is that a new feature? I thought it’s not possible on a purpose

You can?! Just head to https://github.com/:org/:repo/settings and scroll down to the "Features" part. You should be able to uncheck it there.

History disappears, which is a bit annoying if ppl have invested energies there. I'd personally prefer it possible to lock them without archiving nor making them disappear from the internet :)

[yu3zhou4]

Is it an intended that a history disappears, though? I would assume most people wouldn’t expect it to happen when they disable new issues (for instance - temporarily because of taking a break from a project)
