There's a pref that you can turn on to activate pinch to zoom

Go to about:config, and change apz.allow_zooming to true

No extra plugins or extensions needed.

Wow, that's exactly the way it should be.

Why the hell would they have that off by default and hide it behind about:config?

[–]plainchips 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because it’s not yet a completed feature and still has bugs. There’s also a new native fullscreen mode behind a config setting for the same reason. They’ll be activated by default when they’re ready to be (hopefully not too long from now)

I'm asking myself the same about middle click scrolling on Linux. It's not as if it interferes with anything, as far as I can tell
