@Fakepivot Okay, I actually managed to port the main functionality of the plugin to firefox :)

Would you be interested in a dedicated firefox version?
I find it quite interesting right now and would volunteer to add it to the addon store

@Fakepivot It's currently under review and should be available in the next days, unless the original creator has any objections.

I tried to rewrite it for 3-4 hours, but the original is so well coded, that I ended up cloning 99% of it.
I only had to change all "chrome.storage" to "browser.storage" and update the manifest.json :)

I'll let you know once it's available!

@Fakepivot Oh shit, I think I "ported" the wrong extension 🤔
Now that's embarassing...

I "ported" this one: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/spacebar-drag/jaccokbdifidliancbiinoccfpilkiea

Didnt have any second thoughts, because it's using Space+Drag to scroll...

@Fakepivot Yeah, you actually mentioned it, sorry...

What I noticed: in the description it says that it basically works just like the firefox extension "Grab and Drag"
While that extension doesnt exist anymore, there's this extension which is the spiritual successor:
