Soft Gray cursor
Light gray, rounded triangle pointers with a short stubby tail, flat and quiet in tone. The link and location cursors swap in a skin-toned pointing hand, the pen is an orange pencil, and help, unavailable and zoom states get round orange, red or teal badges. As it loads, teal dots appear one by one around the arrow, then vanish.

About the Soft Gray cursor set
Soft Gray is a cursor skin for Windows and macOS in the minimal style. Soft gray pointers with bright little badges.
The set includes all 21 cursor states — the 17 that Windows uses and the 16 that macOS uses — so it looks complete on either system. 2 of them are animated: working in background (6 frames) and busy (16 frames).
In CursorSkins you can check every state in the fitting room before applying it, and restore your original cursors in one click. If you like this one, try Classic Outline or Green Edge, or browse more Minimal cursors.
