Hi All,
So many people here post in degrees F. Of course, 95% of the population on Earth has no idea what F is much less how to use it. The other 95% would really benefit from a bot that finds posts with degrees F, puts a bracket around the F and insert the C equivalent.
I run a small software/SaaS business, and recently I’ve started getting a bunch of unusual signups within a short period of time.
Most of these accounts sign up and then don’t really do anything afterward. When I checked the signup data, a large number of the IP addresses geolocate to the same country/region, which made me wonder why it's even happening.
I already have email verification in place before users can fully use the product, but they’re still able to sign up, browse around, and see some of the functionality before verifying their email. So there isn’t really a hard blocker at the initial signup stage.
Has anyone running a SaaS experienced something similar? Is there usually a reason bots would create a bunch of accounts even if they don’t seem to do anything afterward?
I’m wondering if I should add more protection at signup, or if I’m overthinking it.
I guess one small upside is that the user count goes up, but obviously that doesn’t mean much if those users aren’t actually engaging with the product.
Curious if anyone has dealt with this before and what you ended up doing.
