I have a custom cursor that I use off gnome-looks and when I open the firefox browser the cursor changes to the default black cursor. Is there a way to solve this problem?

If you're using the Firefox snap, then there is no way to force it to use your custom cursor. Snaps are containerised and are limited to just the connections granted at the time of packaging, which for icons would be gtk-common-* or something like that. One option may be to use an apt-installed version of Firefox, which would have access to the custom icon library. – matigo Jan 12 '22 at 03:04
@matigo actually in 22.04 this does not even work as installing via apt still just grabs the snap unfortunately – ConnerWithAnE May 05 '22 at 02:22
@ConnerWithAnE one can replace the Snap version with one from the Mozilla PPAs if they prefer. It's your computer, after all ... – matigo May 05 '22 at 02:41
@matigo true true lol, I was just making a comment heh – ConnerWithAnE May 05 '22 at 03:50
