Have you been using My Photo Stream previously? If you have not used this particular cloud service, , there is nothing to worry about. iCloud Photos and Shared albums will continue to work as before.


My PhotoStream has always stored the photos only for 30 days in iCloud. There is nothing new in this warning. It has been a buffer where new photos have been stored in iCloud for 30 days, so we could download them to our devices and save them there. What is new ist that this service will be stopped and no longer available after July 26.
