The hand/pointer mouse cursor changed after a snap refresh. How do I change it back?

I just did sudo snap refresh, and now the pointer/hand mouse cursor changed.

It used to look like a normal mouse pointer, like this, but now when I hover over a clickable link or button, the mouse cursor becomes like this.enter image description here(picture of screen because screenshots remove the pointer)

  1. What made it change to this?
  2. How do I change it back?

Note that I disabled automatic snap refreshes and refresh them manually because of issues with Chromium.

Install gnome-tweaks by:

sudo apt install gnome-tweaks

and then go into appearance to change the cursor back to normal (yaru)

if it doesn't work try logging out and in again
