Sometimes in Chrome, I try to scroll down and I end up going back. This is the single most annoying thing that happens to me when I’m using chrome. Fortunately you can disable this.

Here is how, on stackexchange

TLDR;

Disable it only for a specific application

To disable it for Chrome, open up a terminal and execute:

defaults write com.google.Chrome AppleEnableSwipeNavigateWithScrolls -bool FALSE

Similarly you can disable it for any app, just replace com.google.Chrome with whatever app you want this gesture disabled on.

Disable it system wide

Go to: System Preferences -> Trackpad -> More Gestures. And then untick Swipe between pages
