Open a new tab in Firefox, and enter into the address bar: about:config
.
There may be a warning about the sensitivity of the advanced settings within, accept the risk and proceed.
There will be a search bar at the top, search for:
mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_y
The default value seems to be 100
. Change it to something like 30
, and save with the checkmark on the right.
The updated scroll speed should be experienced immediately.
Mind you, this setting seems to influence both the mouse's scrollwheel and the two-finger scrolling on the touchpad. I don't know how could one configure the two independently from each other.
