Screenshots

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. change nochange

Additional context

The problem was reported in the Firefox bug tracker and a user reported solving it installing KDE/Plasma 5, so maybe that should be added to the package. I also tried installing the most recent Firefox version (126.0) from nixpkgs unstable and the problem reoccurred.

Installing KDE/Plasma is certainly not the solution if you're not running KDE/Plasma in the first place.

Works for me on Sway.

I thought maybe there was some icon pack that could be included or something. Could anyone try in X11? I am running StumpWM.

Hey, I experience this bug, and I have for a while! I've given up trying to root cause it. I think it has something to do with environment.pathsToLink, since it first showed up when I started trying to make a minimal GNOME environment.

From the Firefox bug tracker: setting widget.gtk.legacy-cursors.enabled to true in about:config in Firefox fixed it for me

I found this issue because with the 128.0.3 update, Firefox started using a hand cursor over links. I didn't like it because it's backward from the normal one - it's not the hand in the first screenshot of this issue, it's a bigger black one pointing to the right. Thankfully, setting widget.gtk.legacy-cursors.enabled reverted it to a standard arrow over links.
