Using i3wm

Using arch wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Cursor_themes#XDG_specification

$ ls .local/share/icons/
Bibata-Modern-Ice/

In ~/.icons/default/index.theme

[icon theme]
Inherits=Bibata-Modern-Ice

In ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

[Settings]
gtk-cursor-theme-name=Bibata-Modern-Ice

Also used ln -s ~/.icons/default/cursors .local/share/icons/Bibata-Modern-Ice/cursors/, but it still doesn't work. It only works in firefox. Doesn't work in other areas of desktop. LXAppearance also doesn't work.

I claim your order when creating the symlink is wrong. I just had the same problem but fixed it with:

cd ~/.icons/default
ln -s /usr/share/icons/Bibata-Modern-Classic/cursors/ cursors
