user profile page fails to render properly with cookies/localstorage disabled

Summary

I browse with cookies disabled by default, which also disables localStorage. Trying to use it (even read from it) throws an exception, per spec.

Steps to reproduce

Visit my profile page, https://gitlab.com/sneakdotberlin , with cookies/localStorage disabled in chrome.

What is the current bug behavior?

Page fails to render, console displays:

main.0d6be92c.chunk.js:25 Uncaught DOMException: Failed to read the 'localStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document.

What is the expected correct behavior?

User profile page should render fully.
