You'll be able to deploy your project if you make the repo public or move it to a personal GitHub account.

Deploying private GitHub organization repos has been restricted for as long as I can remember, but a loophole was allowing some to be deployed anyway. A recent update corrected it.

From Deploying private Git repositories using Hobby teams:

You cannot deploy to a Hobby team from a private repository in a GitHub organization, GitLab group, or Bitbucket workspace. Consider making the repository public or upgrading to Pro.

Why it wasn't communicated in any way?

The restriction on Hobby teams deploying from a private repositories in GitHub organizations, GitLab groups, or Bitbucket workspaces is documented at the link posted above. This is not a new limit, just a bugfix.

Note that public repos can be deployed so open source projects can use GitHub organizations, GitLab groups, or Bitbucket workspaces to coordinate.

I hope that makes sense!

Hi Amy, it might have been an internal policy, but it doesn't appear to have been communicated externally prior to this. I entered the link you included above into the Internet Archive, and as of the most recent snapshot on June 28th, the quoted policy/limitation did not exist.

Can you provide proof of that?

I'm not here to fight with you, only relaying the rules as I know them. Vercel's site has gone through multiple updates over the years, so I don't know all of the places where it was previously documented. But I'll share what I have.

It used to be on the pricing page (snapshot from May 2020)

There are records of the support team sharing the same info for a while now. Some years before I joined Vercel.

Can Github organization repos be imported? · vercel/community · Discussion #123

I'm a Github @user owning an @organization which has a project I want to deploy. However the import dialog lets me select only @user repos and no @organization repos.

And in guides, like https://vercel.com/guides/connecting-teams-with-personal-git-accounts (and snapshot with the same info)

Hope that's all the proof y'all need

Public repos from Github orgs have historically also been restricted, but that restriction has recently been removed
