Description

I wouldn't mind being able to disable the webui default landing page.
While potentially unlikely, i feel it can just promote an instance which shows the service that is currently running, allowing for someone to exploit it.
I dont need the webui landing page for any reason and have it setup extremely strict
Any thoughts on how this could be achieved?
If not able to be done presently, I would like a toggle box to remove it, similar to how matrix doesn't have a default landing page.

Research direction

The issue concerns Rocket.Chat’s webui default landing page and requests a toggle to disable it. Start by locating the landing-page entry point and the configuration path that could control it. Done means an administrator can disable the page while the service remains usable.
