Hi, is there a limit of users the Kirby can handle? If I create more than 200 users, there can be performance issue managing them?

Kirby’s performance footprint generally is very low, compared to other CMS choices (talking no database), so managing many users in comparison to other system would depend even more so on your hosting conditions (processor, hdd vs ssd, RAM, PHP memory_limit).

is the membership plugin needed? was just going to use the native kirby user system…

Depends on whether you register the users or if you want users to register themselves from the frontend. You can do that without a plugin if you create a form and the logic yourself.
