Here's a very simple solution: just don't do code reviews, at all. No company I've worked at had a meaningful code review process. In my current job, I get a few requests a day that say, "Could you just quickly approve this?" Code review is mindless rubber-stamping, a cargo cult of process that you've been told is important, for some reason, but it's hard to see why. I don't understand the purpose or context of 90% of the code I rubber-stamp. My coworkers don't understand the purpose or context of 90% of the code I write.
I can imagine an idyllic Valhalla of textbook software engineering practices where everyone diligently reviews PRs with utmost concentration, but that is not the reality I occupy.
