In general, you should not try to put such logic in a signal handler. What if there are multiple handlers that want to steer in different directions?

Instead, do this:

# settings.py:
ACCOUNT_ADAPTER = 'project.users.allauth.AccountAdapter'


# project/users/allauth.py:
class AccountAdapter(DefaultAccountAdapter):

  def get_login_redirect_url(self, request):
      return '/some/url/'

The two datetimes last_login and date_joined will always be different, although it might only be a few milliseconds. This snippet works: 

# settings.py:
ACCOUNT_ADAPTER = 'yourapp.adapter.AccountAdapter'

# yourapp/adapter.py:
from allauth.account.adapter import DefaultAccountAdapter
from django.conf import settings
from django.shortcuts import resolve_url
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

class AccountAdapter(DefaultAccountAdapter):

    def get_login_redirect_url(self, request):
        threshold = 90 #seconds

        assert request.user.is_authenticated()
        if (request.user.last_login - request.user.date_joined).seconds < threshold:
            url = '/registration/success'
        else:
            url = settings.LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL
        return resolve_url(url)

One important remark to pennersr answer: AVOID using files named allauth.py as it will confuse Django and lead to import errors.

the answer here is very simple, you do not need any signals or overriding the DefaultAccountAdapter
in settings.py just add a signup redirect_url

ACCOUNT_SIGNUP_REDIRECT_URL = "/thanks/"
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = "/dashboard/"

You can simply define those two other signals using user_logged_in signal as base. A good place to put it is on a signals.py inside a accounts app, in case you have one, or in you core app. Just remember to import signals.py in you __init__.py.

from django.dispatch import receiver, Signal

pre_user_first_login = Signal(providing_args=['request', 'user'])
post_user_first_login = Signal(providing_args=['request', 'user'])


@receiver(user_logged_in)
def handle_user_login(sender, user, request, **kwargs):
    first_login = user.last_login is None
    if first_login:
        pre_user_first_login.send(sender, user=user, request=request)
    print 'user_logged_in'
    if first_login:
        post_user_first_login.send(sender, user=user, request=request)


@receiver(pre_user_first_login)
def handle_pre_user_first_login(sender, user, request, **kwargs):
    print 'pre_user_first_login'


@receiver(post_user_first_login)
def handle_post_user_first_login(sender, user, request, **kwargs):
    print 'post_user_first_login'
