How to avoid free users "gaming" my app?

I’ve noticed some of my users are using disposable emails so that they keep signing up indefinitely to gain free uses. Apart from blocking all free use, how do others resolve this? Should there be checks for the more obvious mailinator-type email addresses?

I thought I saw something about limiting IP use?

That’s probably something we need to do a better job of on our end. As far as things you can do. It’s tough to detect temporary emails though. On your end, you can only have an unlogged-in guest tier (which limits by IP, not email) and then have a paid tier.

Or you can create an invite-only studio.
