  9. Yet Another Smooth Scrolling icon

    With this extension, you can customize smooth scrolling behavior.

    The extension is worth to use, if you are frustrated at:

    Step size for scrolling by the cursor keys is so short. A built-in smooth scrolling is somewhat less sensitive and laggy. When you flick a wheel so quick.
