Your media tags are in each other, that should not be the case!

if you open curly bracket you have to close it and below it do new @media

try it like this:

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

@media (max-width: 1020px) { /* opened first */
  .main-header { /* opened second */
    background: tomato;
    color: white;
  } /* closed second */
} /* closed first */

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

@media (max-width: 768px) {
  h1 {
    font-size: 5rem;
  }
}
