This is baked into gnome. For anyone who stumble here, this is what I did on Ubuntu 22.04:

Follow the general method described here to make any change to gnome js files.

In this case, the file we need is ui/main.js. Replace this chunk

    let credentials = new Gio.Credentials();
    if (credentials.get_unix_user() === 0) {
        notify(_('Logged in as a privileged user'),
               _('Running a session as a privileged user should be avoided for security reasons. If possible, you should log in as a normal user.'));
    } else if (sessionMode.showWelcomeDialog) {
        _handleShowWelcomeScreen();
    }
    

with

if (sessionMode.showWelcomeDialog) {
    _handleShowWelcomeScreen();
}

Disclaimer: Running a session as a privileged user should be avoided for security reasons. If possible, you should log in as a normal user.
