- Rated 1 out of 5by user_202308, pirms 10 mēnešiemI spend much time to understand why I can't use the Wheel-Gesture on Mac. Fix it, or kill the Gesture on Mac. I doubted my setting at first, not Add-On.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Mel, pirms 2 gadiemNo longer works since Firefox updated from version 100.x to 102.x. on my MacOS 10.14 Mojave. The right click pops up the context menu, usually disabling the gesture. Gesturefy developers: PLEASE FIX THIS BUG.

If not and you really want this to be solved make a detailed report here: https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/issues - Rated 1 out of 5by Ron Herter, pirms 2 gadiem

- Rated 1 out of 5by m3m3l0v3r, pirms 3 gadiemтрекинг движений настолько помойный, что хочется плакать. пользуюсь этим в виду отсутствия альтернатив на фаерфоксе, но ребята уже заставили задуматься о смене браузера.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16825582, pirms 3 gadiemThe update made it very difficult to use.
I use it because I have no other choice, but I'd like to go back to the old four-way only version.Developer response
posted pirms 3 gadiemIf you are using the "Combined" or "Shape Independent" algorithm (see the advanced settings) then version 3 shouldn't have any drawbacks, despite the fact that you might have to re-setup some gestures.
Alternatively you can always go back to an older version: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/gesturefy/versions/ - Rated 1 out of 5by gwho, pirms 3 gadiemlimited actions.
Foxy gestures is way better. Foxy gestures also has all the actions visible to you, so you don't need to scroll through actions and set stuff up.
you'd think custom freeform gestures is more flexible and better, but it just makes it less precise.
It's good to allow flexible input, but restrict them and map them to left right up and down. Otherwise it becomes too finicky. You think you did a gesture but it didn't because your freeform gesture you set up was slightly off angle and slightly too short. Shit like that is pointless and annoying. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13573366, pirms 3 gadiem

- Rated 1 out of 5by M3wThr33, pirms 4 gadiemI'm not sure what keeps getting touched in each update, but it's making it progressively worse each time.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Void, pirms 4 gadiemLatest update made it worse!
I've loved this addon for a long time, however (as other reviews have pointed out) the latest update changed the way it logs gestures and I find this far, far worse. I have a 'C' shape for closing a tab, if I draw this at my normal speed, it picks it up about 50% of the time. I keep finding myself doing actions I don't intend now because if the way it picks up gestures whereas it used to work so smoothly because each motion was logged, now it seems more loose and undefined, I do not enjoy it.
It's really sad to see this happen because I think it already worked very well, if I could revert to the previous version then I would do.
Please, I do hope that you can change it back or make the new method work a little better so I don't have to do everything really slowly, I prefered the super fast motions I could do before in a blur to do 10 things in a second and now I have to slow myself, it feels sluggish.
Sorry for the negative review, it's not what I'd like to do for an addon I've recommended to countless people since I got it.Developer response
posted pirms 4 gadiemWith version 3.0.4 there was an update of the matching algorithm. You can activate it in the settings. This should work better for you.

Can't select the command, list doesn't show up. Sad. Uninstalled.
- Rated 1 out of 5by drk001, pirms 4 gadiemNew Gesturefy is suxx. It has been uninstalled for inaccuracy in recognizing mouse movements. I do not recommend.

Removed directly after that. Maybe I'll check again in a year.
