Mouse pointer cursor issues when browsing

more options

For some weird reason when ever i browse my mouse cursor does not recognize clickable area so the hand cursor will not show until i leave a clickable area and go back again. Its driving me insane. Its not just reddit, but a lot of other sites.

The area is interact able, i can click it, its just cursor does not show as a pointy hand until i transition it to different cursor and then go back again.

Ive included a screen capture to be more clear. I'm using latest macosx on m3 pro. No addons whatsoever. Ive tried install from brew and manual. All same problem. Also tried troubleshoot mode, same issue persist. Chrome/safari does not have this issue.

Does it still happen in a new profile without signing into sync? An easy way to test a new profile is to install Developer Edition and see if it happens there or refresh your existing profile.

Tried all, none worked :( Could it be sonoma + firefox bug? Im not running any extra applications in background on my macos installation.
