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 :(

Sorry for the late reply. icons.theme should be index.theme, although you said the theme you downloaded uses icons.theme. Maybe it's interchangable? I'm not sure about that. Also, is the name of your theme Fluttershy? If so you should put that in the Inherits field, Name shouldn't be necessary. Other than that it looks okay.

    yea i had it to index.theme now :P
    but i misstyped it in the comment the file name :(
    Also it still doesnt wanna load even tho my flatseal settings uses this :(

    XCURSOR_PATH=/run/host/user-share/icons:/run/host/share/icons

    My Cursor Icons are inside .icons tho so should i copy them to /usr/share/icons as well? O.o

    I'm not sure what /run/host/user-share/icons points to, it might be flatpak thing where it's pointing to something outside the sandbox. I'm pretty sure you could just point it to .icons like this:

    XCURSOR_PATH=~/.icons
