Gestures and scroll speed - how do I customize?

There doesn't seem to be gestures enabled. I want to swipe left or right to go back for forward in my browser's history. I can't seem to do this. Is it possible?

The scroll speed is also extremely fast - is there a way to slow it down?

I'm using a laptop with a trackpad and running Windows 10.

Thanks.

Every browser seems to interpret scroll speed (a windows setting) personally, and it isn't easy to customize. If you search "scroll" in about:config you may be able to tweak some things. As for gestures, I'd recommend looking for an extension/add-on for it.
