For me at default, the scrolling with the mouse wheel is way too fast for the tab bar, so i've found mousewheel.default.delta.multiplier in the about:config. The only one affecting the tab bar is _y, but this also affects the website scrolling. Is this by design, and if so, why, or better yet, how do i change it?

for all those that struggle with the same stupid thing, mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount fixes this, or at least sorta gets around this weird functionality.

You can look at toolkit.scrollbox prefs.
