Gesticulate is a work-in-progress add-on that supports rocker gestures to execute common browsing tasks.
Help! This doesn't work on Mac or Linux!
First, make sure you have Firefox 58 or greater. Then go to about:config and set ui.context_menus.after_mouseup to true. This will ensure that when you start a gesture with RMB, you'll be able to complete the gesture instead of being interrupted by the context menu.
Supported Gestures
RMB->LMB: Go back
LMB->RMB: Go forward
MMB->LMB: Previous tab
MMB->RMB: Next tab
User reviews
Simple and effective. Would be improved if the middle mouse button had the option of refreshing the tab contents with a click.
Works perfectly. The biggest thing missing when coming from Opera/Vivaldi were the rocker gestures. Also not a bloated mess like all the other gesture extensions.
Gesticulate is risky to use as it requires a number of sensitive permissions that can
potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this
add-on. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only
install
Gesticulate
if you trust the publisher.
Risk likelihood
Gesticulate is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution
when installing this add-on.
