Cant use firefox on mac trackpads. When i swipe down\up the site. i move the site in right. (when the site has the ability to scroll sideways.)

the trackpad is too sensitive. Instead of scrolling up / down, it starts to tilt sideways. even Google Chrome does not have such a drawback.

I understand that just the browser is not optimized for the trackpad? or can it be possible to prevent sites from scrolling sideways?

Did you check your driver settings? FF doesn't control the trackpad that would be a driver related.
