But as you can see, the h2 element is blue in my code. I tried resetting the code and doing it again. I also tried copy-pasting the answer from the video solution.

Putting another color instead of blue gives the same error message.

Edit: The output also reflects the blueness of the h2 tag. (new user, not allowed to put more than one image)

do you have a dark mode extension?

yes. That can cause problems?

That was it. I turned off the extension and it worked. Thanks a lot!

One entire day out trying to keep going bc of the dark side … when i saw this solution, i turned off the dark side mode, and the force came back to me!

Finally got this to work. I now have an ugly teal Chrome bar that I will change back to dark mode until I have to switch to pass again.
