On Windows, if you click MMB on some windows, your mouse cursor will turn into a little ↕️ icon, and then you can scroll by moving the mouse cursor up and down, with it going faster the further you drag away from the position it was originally at.
This is one (1) behaviour I miss from Windows. Hours upon hours of scroll-wheeling makes my joints quite tired.
But well. Linux is nothing if not customisable, so I’m wondering if there’s a way to recreate this behaviour on it.
I’m on KDE Plasma.
It’s been a wonderful X-Windows feature on UNIX systems for ages, which Linux inherited. Select and middle mouse button paste is so ingrained in me, I can’t function without it.
After moving from windows to Linux I found myself accidentally press ing middle click and pasting when scrolling a lot. And I was scrolling a lot because I didn’t have the middle-click-drag scroll feature. I ended up disabling middle click paste.
