I came across this forum as I was running into similar issues with redirects in GitLab Pages.
First, make sure the redirects are in a file called “_redirects” in the public directory. At first, I made a typo when naming the file, so obviously none of the redirects would work!
The other reason seem… Answer from ColtonW on forum.gitlab.com

GitLab Pages
When you use GitLab Pages with custom domains, you can redirect all requests to GitLab Pages to a primary domain. When the primary domain is selected, users receive 308 Permanent Redirect status that redirects the browser to the selected primary domain.
Releases
You can access the latest release page through a permanent link. GitLab always redirects the permanent link URL to the address of the latest release page.

Redirects in GitLab documentation | GitLab Docs
In https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/customers-gitlab-com, search for full URLs: ... If you want to move a file from one location to another, you do not move it. Instead, you duplicate the file, and add the redirect code to the old file. Create the new file. Copy the contents of the old file to the new one. In the old file, delete all the content. In the old file, add the redirect code and follow the rest of the steps in the Redirect to a page that already exists topic.
"You are being redirected away from GitLab" pages don't redirect
For HTML artifacts, it actually used to render the page immediately. As I recall, due to an XSS security issue (because the HTML would run in the context of the domain gitlab.com), this has not been the case for maybe a couple years now. A similar XSS issue exists depending on how your pages [sub]domains are setup. So, as I understand it, to prevent someone from being pwned by clicking a gitlab.com link, you get the warning and the choice to click the button. That's also why now the default behavior for pages subdomains (for projects created after the issue was resolved) is to use a hash for each project. More on reddit.com

r/gitlab on Reddit: "You are being redirected away from GitLab" pages don't redirect
May 22, 2024 -
We have a few links to CI artifacts in our READMEs and project badges, so that it's easy to get to generated documentation and reports. These links are in this sort of format:
https://gitlab.com/mygroup/myproject/-/jobs/artifacts/main/file/dir1/dir2/dir3/index.html?job=build
When following one of these links, GitLab serves a page that says "You are being redirected away from GitLab" and then it has a link to the actual artifact hosted on GitLab pages, like:
https://mygroup.gitlab.io/-/myproject/-/jobs/1234567890/artifacts/dir1/dir2/dir3/index.html
I seem to remember that these "redirect" pages used to actually redirect to the latter address after a second or two, but it seems that they now require that you click on the link.
Am I misremembering the old behavior? Is there some way to get that behavior? Does anyone else find it kind of annoying having to always click on that second link?

r/gitlab on Reddit: Gitlab Pages 'The redirect URI included is not valid.'
April 25, 2023 -
Hey guys,
I'm working on a migration of our Gitlab CE instance from a docker compose environment to a dedicated EC2 Runner and Server.
I've got everything working so for except Gitlab Pages. I've followed the documentation here: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/pages/
I've created the following DNS records.
A record for Gitlab git.dev.company.cloud
A record for Gitlab Pages gitdocs.dev.company.cloud
A record for wildcard *.gitdocs.dev.company.cloud
The omnibus configuration file contains: pages_external_url 'http://gitdocs.dev.company.cloud'
I navigate to the pages section of a project and click on the URL. A redirect begins, but instead of sending me to pages it sends me to my user page and displays:
An error has occurred The redirect URI included is not valid.
The NGINX logs for pages show a 302 redirect, but that is about it...
Any help would be much appreciated!!

What is your external url listed in your gitlab.rb? (I might not have the exact file name listed)

GitLab Pages requests redirect to sign-in page instead of loading Pages content – GitLab, Inc.
If the listen directives are not identical across the two server blocks, they end up in separate listen groups. In that case, requests that should be routed to GitLab Pages may instead be handled only by the main GitLab block, which results in a redirection loop back to the GitLab sign-in page.
