It probably because nitro doesn't overwrite your host file. You may need to edit it yourself using nano (assuming you're on linux).

sudo nano /etc/hosts

you will need to provide

* the IP address- that you can find using `nitro info` in the terminal or by opening the nitro-dev shell in multipass
* the hostname- example.test or whatever else that may be

There is a github issue raised for it, see <https://github.com/craftcms/nitro/issues/213>
