Confirmed — this is a GitHub-wide rendering bug affecting all .ipynb files since May 30, 2026. It is not your notebook or your repo. Same issue is being reported across hundreds of repositories.
Workarounds while GitHub fixes it:
Replace "github.com" in your URL with "colab.research.google.com/github"
Example:
https://github.com/fullstacksam23/Data-Preprocessing/blob/main/preprocessing.ipynb
becomes:
https://colab.research.google.com/github/fullstacksam23/Data-Preprocessing/blob/main/preprocessing.ipynb
Use nbviewer
Go to nbviewer.org and paste your GitHub notebook URL. Renders independently of GitHub.
