en It works flawlessly! After much troubleshooting on a rehabilitated 2014 MacBook Air on Ubuntu 24, I finally got Chromium-based browser Vivaldi & Chrome history two-finger lateral swiping back & forth working using swipe-back. Huzzah! Still not sure why Ubuntu with Wayland was only able to support history navigation with the two-finger side swipe touchpad gestures on Mozilla Firefox. swipe-back immediately solved the situation on Chromium-based browsers. Thank you very much!

en Works perfectly like in a Mac. It is a shame it doesn't always do the swipe next. Only sometimes. I believe its an issue with my default website which is bliss.

en As a Vivaldi user, I want to show my gratitude. Extension is very useful, but for some reason you can't go forward in history from new tab menu.
