Hey there!
I was working on my new game (Sorry, I’m not releasing details!), when I remembered about this annoying greeting:
If I were to include a custom welcome message, is there any way to remove the default one (without scripting a custom chat system because I’m lazy)?
Thanks!
If you make a custom chat feature then it will go. You can always hire someone to do it for you!
That worked, thanks!

Both solutions (custom chat, forking the chat modules) are unnecessary. Just use the Lua API that Roblox provides for its Chat system. This will save you work and keep you automatically up-to-date with any changes made to the Chat scripts.
local ChatServiceRunner = game:GetService("ServerScriptService"):WaitForChild("ChatServiceRunner")
local ChatService = require(ChatServiceRunner.ChatService)
local MainChannel = ChatService:GetChannel("all")
MainChannel.WelcomeMessage = ""
You can find full documentation for the Chat System on the DevHub: Customizing In-Experience Text Chat | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub
