"Unsupported pseudo-selector" errors arise when you use a pseudo-selector that is either not defined in the CSS specification or not implemented by the browser you're using. Examples include using deprecated pseudo-selectors, typos, or attempting to use CSS4/CSS5 features in older browsers. To address this, ensure your pseudo-selectors are valid and supported by the target browsers. Check the browser compatibility tables on websites like MDN Web Docs to verify support for specific pseudo-selectors.
