Would you use a hand cursor for a button?

Super late answer but I hope you get it: yes, it is a good practice.

In "native apps" on desktops, all buttons look the same, so users know they're clickable because they've already learned it.

On the web however, every page looks different, so it is helpful to show the users you can click things by using the "hand" cursor.

Yes, I would.
