 Hi @catalinnita,

 I've just reviewed this ticket and attempted to recreate the issue in a
 clean installation of the latest release (6.8.3). Unfortunately, I haven't
 been able to reproduce it. Are you still encountering this problem? Could
 you please provide additional details that might help us pinpoint the
 cause?

 For reference, I've included a testing report below outlining the steps
 I've taken:

 == Testing Report
 === Environment
 - WordPress: 6.8.3
 - PHP: 8.4.7
 - Server: nginx/1.27.5
 - Database: mysqli (Server: 8.0.40 / Client: mysqlnd 8.4.7)
 - Browser: Chrome 141.0.0.0
 - OS: macOS
 - Theme: Twenty-Five 1.3
 - MU Plugins: None activated
 - Plugins:
   * Test Reports 1.2.0

 === Steps taken
 1. Installed WordPress 6.8.3 on a fresh environment.
 2. Created a "Posts" page and designated it as the front-end for the posts
 archive.
 3. Generated over 10,000 posts using WP-CLI, as the default is 10 posts
 per page.
 4. Tested these URLs:
   - ✅ - `/posts`
   - ✅ - `/posts/page/10/`
   - ✅ - `/posts/page/100/`
   - ✅ - `/posts/page/999/`
   - ✅ - `/posts/page/1000/`
