Users with projects under their personal accounts currently see the following notification. This was introduced in #13414

We'll remove projects under personal accounts in Q1'2023.`

This should be changed so that users are not left thinking that their project data will be deleted. Suggested wording:

Projects under personal accounts have been deprecated, please add new projects under a team. Existing personal projects will continue to work for now, but may require migration to a team in future.

The docs page for projects should be also updated to include a deprecation notice. see https://github.com/gitpod-io/website/issues/2934

Cross-posting below a relevant comment (#13414 (comment)) from the UX review in the initial PR that added this alert:

Probably not the best line to comment for this, but here's an alert we could use to inform users about projects deprecation under personal accounts. Things to consider:

  1. Making the copy focus on the positive aspects of this change.
  2. Nudge users with the best action forward, that is creating a team.
  3. Make this closable to avoid getting into the face of users if they decide this is something they want to dismiss.

Should probably actually say:

Projects under personal accounts are obsolete, please add new projects under a team. Existing personal projects will continue to work for now, but may require migration to a team in future.

with "are obsolete" in place of "have been deprecated", since it's not just a suggestion, you actually can't create new projects under personal accounts.
