I saw this post https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=542690 where it seems implied that it should work, but on LMDE 5 w. firefox 98.0.2 64-bit scrolling horizontally w. touchpad doesn't work for scrolling on pages nor for scrolling the tab list at the top.

Ok well this issue is now solved. Apparently in LMDE 5 horizontal scrolling is a setting that can be enabled and is disabled by default.

Does it have effect if you hold the Shift key ?

And did you install the touchpad driver?

This is Linux and not Windows.

No that inverses the vertical scrolling direction (as it would for a mouse), this is about horizontal scrolling.
