Firefox scrolling is slow

Firefox wheel event deltas are really tiny in comparison to other browsers.

For example, in Chrome on my mouse, deltaY is 166, whereas in Firefox it is 5.

Maybe there's some normalization we can do, but would require extensive testing with all possible input modes (touchscreen, touchpad, mouse with continuous, non-discrete wheels...).

The OP said Figma is affected as well, but I can't repro. So if Figma figured it out, we can too.

I have the same problem in Firefox: scrolling with laptop trackpad is 20x slowwe in FF than in Chrome.

Also the "?" keyboard help suggests Space + Drag or Wheel + Drag to move the canvas. On my Linux laptop, Space + anything on my trackpad does nothing.

Just saw the web app in a video, tried it myself - looks nice but there is this annoying navigation issue when using Firefox + touch pad two-finger gesture panning (zooming&moving around) - it is not only slow but it has a significant delay which ruins the experience.
