Limits are inclusive of all machine states (started, stopped, suspended). These limits do not apply to machines deployed in our apps.
Total of started, stopped and suspended machines across all apps in this organization.
5/50
So does this mean this app can only have a max of 50 apps? and how can i bypass this? I use 1 app to deploy multiple projects. but now do i have to make an app for each project i deploy?

This phrasing is incorrect, apologies. It should read:
The Machines limit is a fail-safe to prevent runaway creation of machines. If you need this limit increased, please email us at billing@fly.io
With that in mind - you can have as many apps as you want, but the total of machines in all the apps in your organization is currently capped at 50.
(you can conceivably have more apps than machines if you have some apps with no machines, but that’d be fairly rare).

No, as mentined above, the limit is for all machines in apps across the entire organization.
If you need more, please shoot us an e-mail at billing@fly.io, let us know how many machines you think you’d need to have, and we can increase the limit as needed.
Just a word of caution: running machines cost money. You are billed for machines that are started, not for actual utilization of those resources. So even if your service gets little traffic or is mostly unused or the database servers are mostly empty, you are billed for the time the machines stay up and running, including the allocated volumes, regardless of whether it serves requests in this period.
Our platform let users deploy their own software. so how we currently set it up is each user gets their own app +machines. so thats why its important for us to scale the amount of machines to more machines in the near future. because otherwise we as a platform cannot accommodate all our users.
