GitHub Pages deployment workflows stuck pending

I've recently found that every time I push new commits to trigger GitHub Pages build, the deployment workflow gets stuck in pending state for a long time, or fails directly without obvious error logs.

My repository uses the official GitHub Pages workflow to build static sites.
The weird part: all my previously deployed Pages websites can still be accessed normally, only new build tasks are broken.

I've tried re-running jobs, clearing cache, and re-enabling Pages settings, none of these methods fix the issue.
Is there an ongoing platform-side issue affecting Pages deployments?

Meanwhile, another project built on Cloudflare using the same GitHub repository runs perfectly :-)

I'm experiencing the same thing with two of my repos today.

Same chaos here. Let’s be chill.🥲
