Gitlab.com issues

Im am struggling with a strange issue. I can’t access gitlab.com directly. I am redirected to the blog Instead. This is not a browser problem on my machine, since I can confirm it via httpie:

$ http --follow --verbose  gitlab.com
GET / HTTP/1.1
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Connection: keep-alive
Cookie: request_method=GET; _gitlab_session=f93ca61a490e1ede556588ce4d611e6c
Host: about.gitlab.com
User-Agent: HTTPie/0.9.2



HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: text/html

Using a direct link (e.g. to an issue) I can access gitlab.com. Can someone confirm this?

I think that if you are logged in and the browser has kept the session you are redirected to gitlab.com. Otherwise the official site appears.
