Whenever I accidentally scroll too far left or right in Firefox, it goes back or forth in my history, which is very annoying. How could I disable this?
EDIT: Fixed it by disabling the gestures. Thanks @[email protected]!
You mean on firefox mobile?
I don’t know about the history, but on firefox mobile there is a setting to let you switch from one tab to another when sliding left or right. Maybe you are speaking of that? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/use-gestures-in-firefox-android#w_switch-tabs-by-swiping-the-address-bar
I honestly have no idea what they’re talking about. Neither desktop nor mobile have this behavior. Maybe he’s talking about the Android gesture that replaced the back button when they removed the bottom buttons?
I’m talking about the Firefox build on my laptop, I’ll make a screen capture when I’m home
No, I mean on my laptop. When I scroll horizontally and I overscroll, it either goes forwards or backwards in my browser history for that tab.
