2,271 PointsBackface visibility isn't working for me on Brave browser. Any idea how to fix?
.content { perspective: 700px; }
.photo-container{ transition:transform .5s ease-out; transform-style:preserve-3D; }
.photo-container:hover { transform: rotateY(-180deg) }
.side-a, .side-b { backface-visibility:hidden; }

I'm surprised at the compatibility issues since the web description of Brave says it's based on the V8 engine (as used by Chrome). But I did find a blog article from 2017 mentioning this as an issue with Brave, but a comment a few weeks later says "I can confirm, that the issue is solved into the latest version of Brave".
If it has been broken again by recent updates, perhaps the browser maintenance team should be notified. Otherwise, maybe using backface-visibility should be avoided if you know your site needs to support this browser.

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 11,235 PointsWas able to figure it out. I was using the .photo-container class rather than the .photo class as you are - the previous video had a note about making that change. Once I changed it back to .photo, the problem resolved in Brave with this code:
.content { perspective: 800px; }
.photo { transition: transform 1s ease-out; transform-style: preserve-3d; }
.photo:hover { transform: rotateY(-180deg); }
.side-a { backface-visibility: hidden; }
.side-b { transform: rotateY(180deg); }
