The short answer
Vercel's changelog of September 16, 2026 says Hobby projects now retain fewer deployments past the 30-day retention window. Each Hobby project keeps its 3 most recent production deployments, plus its 3 most recent deployments of any type, regardless of age. Your current production deployment is still never deleted, and aliased and active-branch deployments are still protected, but preview deployments no longer get their own protection.
What to do
- Keep an eye on your Deployment Storage: Hobby teams get 10GB, and every deployment you keep uses some of it.
- Stay under the limit. Going over can block you from deploying until you free some up.
- Need more room? Vercel suggests optimizing your Deployment Storage, or upgrading to Pro, where storage is billed at $0.10 per GB per month.
Good to know
- If your team is over the 10GB limit, deployments outside those exceptions are deleted immediately instead of after 30 days.
