Feature Highlight: User preferences to customize GitLab behavior

GitLab 8.1 introduces new user preferences based on feedback from the previous 8.0 version, which refined the user interface but prompted requests for further customization. Users can now choose between a fluid or fixed width layout to better utilize large screens, and select their preferred default dashboard view, with options to display all projects, starred projects, their activity, or activity limited to starred projects. Additionally, users can customize the project view to either display the Readme file or recent activity, catering to both newcomers and frequent project participants. These enhancements aim to improve user experience by allowing individuals to tailor the interface to their specific needs, with immediate availability on GitLab.com and upgrade instructions provided in the GitLab 8.1 release post.
