Hi!

This pull request is probably controversial. It is meant to start a discussion.

It may be a personal thing, a European thing, a cultural thing, you tell me. When I use software I don't like to look at company names all the time, the same way I try to keep my life as free from advertisements as possible. There are places where branding feels organic and fits in but there are two places in Cabot where I personally find the branding to invasive: they get too much attention in a way that is hard to look by. For daily operation, that matters. So this pull request reduces use of the Arachnys brand a bit.

Branding that is kept untouched includes:

  • Everything in README.md
  • The Arachnys company logo left of "Cabot" in the top nagivation bar and the effective favicon
  • The regex placeholder [Aa]rachnys\s+[Rr]ules

Branding that is removed:

  • Text by Arachnys in the top navigation bar and page title
  • Placeholder text https://www.arachnys.com for an HTTP check endpoint example URL

I'm happy to introduce a switch DEBRAND=False or so to development.env and friends to make this change conditional if it's more of the right direction.

What do you think?

I'm ok with this, I agree the branding's unnecessary.

@dbuxton what do you think?
