Yes, it's the airline which sets the weight limit - 10 kg with Ryanair, unlimited with easyJet so long as you can hoist it into the overhead rack, various limits with other airlines.

Some believe their hand baggage was checked for weight by the airport. In practice, it's passengers with Ryanair BPs who sometimes get checked.
