We're overwhelmed with new registrations. This allow us to set the environment variable `CLOSED_FOR_REGISTRATION=1` which will allow all existing registrations to work, but redirect all new registrations to a "closed" page. It also updates the homepage to show that we're closed so people can easily see before signing up. Note that this is different from the `DISALLOW_CREATING_NEW_REDIRECTIONS` config, which is more like a shadow ban when we're getting a bunch of spam. It does not show a message. Surprisingly different implementations!
