remove "checking your browser before accessing gitlab.com" splash screen
Deprecation Summary
Remove obnoxious "checking your browser before accessing gitlab.com" splash screen.
Breaking Change
No idea at all. It was described as part of DDOS protection, so maybe sadly it is really necessary.
Affected Topology
Everyone, but positively.
Affected Tier
It is not a feature, that is obnoxious and infuriating splash screen resurrected from 1990 page designs.
