AutoScroll - Customizable AutoScrolling for Chrome

"AutoScroll" is a browser extension for Chrome that provides both sticky and non-sticky autoscrolling options. Particularly beneficial for Linux and Mac users, it has various customizable features such as scroll speed adjustment. AutoScroll works by pressing (or holding) the middle mouse button and moving the mouse to scroll the page or alternatively, by holding Ctrl/⌘ and pressing the left mouse button. However, it may not work on every page and doesn't operate on chrome:// URLs or the Chrome Web Store due to security restrictions.

Por favor, antes de que inhabiliten la extensión, que el desarrollador la actualice porque es la única que me funciona tan bien.
