Heya :D
So i finally figured out how to install Custom Cursors and decided to install this one :P
https://www.xfce-look.org/p/2347781

Sadly it only works with certain Applications like Firefox and such but for example uses the Stock Cursor on KeePassXC and STeam as well as some Video Games :(\

Does anyone by CHance have an Idea how to fix it? O.o
Or should i just try rebooting my Machine after applying the Cursor? >.>

Im on ARch Linux with Latest XFCE4 if that matters :P
Also Anyone got a Nyan Cat Cursor for Linux? >.>
Wouldve loved tp use this one but Cursors arent simple PNG Files you just apply to a Cursor it seems :(

    You might want to try creating a file called index.theme in .local/share/icons/default/ and putting this in it:

    [Icon Theme]
    Name=Default
    Comment=Default Cursor Theme
    Inherits=your-theme-here
    

    cursors can be a pain in the ass to actually make them show up everywhere properly. If you’re using Xorg you might also need to set it in .Xresources:

    Xcursor.theme: your-theme-here
    Xcursor.size: 24
    

    and then if you get into flatpaks you might have to mess with settings in flatseal to give it access to the cursor theme.

      Just tried that and it wouldnt really work sadly :(

      My Files basically look like this tho so i may have done something wrong >.>
      /home/retro-hax/.local/share/icons/default/icons.theme

      [Icon Theme]
      Name=Fluttershy
      Inherits=Adwaita
      

      the icons.theme file is btw simply copied from my Fluttershy Cursoer that im using :P

      .Xresources:

      Xcursor.theme: Fluttershy
      Xcursor.size: 24
