Discussed in https://github.com/healthchecks/healthchecks/discussions/765

The current situation:

"My Projects" page (the homepage when logged in): projects are sorted alphabetically (case sensitive), but projects with checks in down state always first
the Account menu in top navigation: projects are sorted alphabetically (sorted in database, so case sensitivity depends on db collation settings. In practice with Ubuntu and Postgres, case insensitive)
the "Account Settings" page, "My Projects" section: undefined order, except projects where the user is the owner always come first
Check's details page, "Transfer to Another Project" dialog: projects are sorted alphabetically (sorted in database, so case sensitivity depends on db collation settings. In practice with Ubuntu and Postgres, case insensitive)

It would be nice to make the sorting more consistent. I'm thinking:

"My Projects": alphabetic, case insensitive, but projects with checks in the down state always first
Account menu: alphabetic, case insensitive regardless of DB settings
Account Settings - My Projects: alphabetic, case insensitive regardless of DB settings
"Transfer to Another Project" dialog: alphabetic, case insensitive regardless of DB settings
