Firefox From Handheld Mode Input Issues
I used LibreWolf, specifically, from the KDE software center but it's a FireFox fork:
1) Mouse scrolling via trackpad/joysticks doesn't work
2) Clicking on anything that's supposed to open menus (like left-clicking) doesn't work

It's not a super big deal, since there's desktop mode, but having working direct access to a non-Chrome web browser without needing to switch would be desired.

I can confirm this happens both with Firefox and Librewolf. Seem to be a problem with the Gecko engine used by both.

assume its the same issue as mine. mouse cursor moves to top left corner when pressing a button. it seems to be related to the flatpak, if you select the firefox binary manually the mouse works fine.

The problem isn't flatpak. Context menus are not created in gamescope.

OP, mousing scrolling works with the joystick. You need to remap the joystick as a mouse scroll wheel.

I already tried that; that's why I said it didn't work for me

OP. Try these options

target: /usr/bin/flatpak

run in: $HOME

launch arguments: run --env=LD_PRELOAD="" --env=XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 --env=WAYLAND_LOG=1 --env=WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 --socket=wayland --env=MOZ_DBUS_REMOTE=1 --env=MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 io.gitlab.librewolf-community
