No worries. That one is a little harder. My understanding is that libinput doesn't handle kinetic scrolling at all[0], it is now implemented at the toolkit level. For Firefox, the "hold" gesture to stop kinetic scrolling is blocked on either the required event being backported to GTK3 or Firefox being ported to GTK4[1]. My only suggestion for the time being is to try scrolling back a tiny bit in the opposite direction rather than tapping. Works for me, lol.

Ok, well, at least the beast mode scrolling is now off :-) Thank you for pointing this out - lets wait some years until this works like expected ;-)

But for now the ONLY thing that bugged me on fedora is (partially) fixed, I'm so happy.
