Looks right to me. Make sure that you don't touch the html code. Here's the answer. However try refreshing the page and do the code again.

@media (max-width: 1020px) {
 .main-header {
  background-color: tomato;
   color: white;
 }
}

@media (max-width: 768px) {
 .title { 
   font-size: 1.4rem;
 }

  h1 {
   font-size: 5rem; 
  }

}

Could be a browser bug, have you tried it on a different browser to see if it will work?

Thanks. I was using Chrome. I tried on Safari and it worked just fine. Every time something like this happens I start questioning myself..... Now I can rest.
