Maybe the problem is with the version of openSSH and openSSL that you have installed.
Communication with GitHub only works for me with the versions:
OpenSSH_7.6p1, OpenSSL 1.0.2u 20 Dec 2019

I was facing the same issue. As usual after coding I always push the code. But this time it didn't work. I followed Many tuts to solve this problem. But end up when I realize my VPN was switched ON already. But before that I applied below command:

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/username/repo-name

And it worked.

For me reconnecting wifi connection and VPN connection solved the issue.

If you are in a corporate environment, outgoing SSH connection would typically be blocked. Or it could be a GFW side-effect (although Hong Kong is supposed to be not impacted).

In any case, the fist tests are to check access and switch to HTTPS, to see if it works then:

  • ping github.com
  • cd /path/to/repo; git remote set-url origin https://github.com/<me>/<myRepo>
