I think it's a nice thing for Gitlab to have done. It's not a big showy gesture, but it's enough to serve as a reminder that Ukrainian devs are in our thoughts.

If it really bothers you, in your browser open up the developer tools (cmd+option+i or F12 in most), find the Network tab, find 'https://gitlab.com/uploads/-/system/appearance/header_logo/1/_logo-lockup_new_2.svg https://gitlab.com/uploads/-/system/appearance/header_logo/1...', right click it and click "Block Request URL" (or something similar. That's what it is in Chromium). Refresh your browser and never be distracted by the colors in the logo again.

Thanks for replying. I am sure there is more than one way to change it. But I am not a Web developer and did not want to spend time on it... I use Firefox. Found the icon in the network log and blocked that URL. But cannot see any effect even on the first reload. When cleaning the cache and going to a new tab the block entry has even disappeared. Doesn't seem to be a persistent setting for the whole browser. Maybe only for one developer tools session??? A quick web search brings up https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/request-blocker-we/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/request-block... . But it's not widely used, so I don't want to start auditing it's code now. I guess uBlock Origin might also offer such functionality. Have never used it. I use CookieAutoDelete and Firefox account containers and if a page has too annoying ads I close it. Prefer spending less time fiddling with my browser these days.
