Scrolling by clicking on the wheel in Linux?
I installed Deepin Linux (it’s too beautiful), but I met with the problem that I can’t scroll anywhere by clicking. The wheel itself works, I can open tabs, I can just scroll, but it’s so boring to turn until you get to the right place.
What to do? Works only in Ognelis, if you start it "with a push"

In Linux, by default, the mouse wheel is used to paste from the second clipboard.
Can be overridden in the settings of each browser. For example, in Firefox: Edit / Preferences / Advanced / Use auto scroll.
I asked myself the same question and found the answer on a foreign forum: ( https://askubuntu.com/questions/28150/chrome-chrom... )
Here I will give a description of the method:
first you need to install xinput:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install xinput
xinput --list
xinput set-prop $deviceId "libinput Scroll Method Enabled" 0, 0, 1
xinput set-prop $deviceId "libinput Button Scrolling Button" 2
xinput set-prop $deviceId "libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled" 1
xinput --set-prop $deviceId 'Evdev Wheel Emulation' 1
xinput --set-prop $deviceId 'Evdev Wheel Emulation Button' 2
xinput --set-prop $deviceId 'Evdev Wheel Emulation Axes' 6 7 4 5
