          Use them when using an actual mouse. Don't use them at all on my laptop when using the trackpad.

          When I do use them, it's gesture left for back and gesture down -> right for closing a tab that I use the most. Probably use down -> up on links for opening in background tabs a lot too.

            Can't be bothered with mouse gestures. To me it's little more than a gimmick.

              Please tell me how exactly it works? I tried but it doesn't work.
              I clicked on an empty space of a page and dragged the pointer to either left or right. It doesn't do anything,
