Hold Alt on Windows or Option on macOS, click and hold with one finger, then drag and release. A click without the drag stays an ordinary click.

In Settings → General, choose Add gesture and draw up to three directions. Pick its action, save it, and it is ready on the active page.
Assign Back, Forward, Reload, New tab, Close tab, Reopen closed tab, Previous tab, Next tab, or Open Island. Existing gestures can be reassigned or removed.
