Right now this is all that happens if you go to `/u` with the Users page disabled

It says “No results found”  
I think that somehting like “The users page is disabled. Please try again later” or something else would be more fitting, at minimum a 404  
The reason I’m asking for this to be a feature and I just dont change it myself is it’s not my forum, I would otherwise.

Yeah can confirm that when the site setting `enable user directory` is disabled, the `/u` route shows a blank page. Links to the user directory are hidden when that setting is disabled, so you’ve got to know to look for it, but it would be nice if it showed our 404 page.
