I want to switch from chrome to Firefox, but there is one key feature that holds me back. Pinch to zoom in and out. I found this workaround, but it's not quite right: https://itstillworks.com/enable-zoom-pinch-firefox-macbook-21731.html On chrome, pinch to zoom is smooth and fluid, this "fix" is stutter stepped. Try both! Please make smooth zoom the standard on firefox<3

You can check some browser.gesture prefs on the about:config page.

  • browser.gesture.pinch.in = "cmd_fullZoomReduce"
  • browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift = "cmd_fullZoomReset"
  • browser.gesture.pinch.out = "cmd_fullZoomEnlarge"
  • browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift = "cmd_fullZoomReset"
  • browser.gesture.pinch.latched = false (Mac:true)
  • browser.gesture.twist.threshold = 150

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
