folks!
I’m trying to set up workflows, but the runner doesn’t start my job. I’ve requested ubuntu-latest and got a message Waiting for a runner to pick up this job.... I’ve canceled jobs and triggered it again several times without success.
Could anyone give me a hint as to what I should do in this case?

That's because ubuntu-latest isn't just deprecated anymore, it's been removed. So any workflow using it can't ever get a runner. Update to a newer version, ubuntu-22.04 is the current one.
