Middle-mouse click to scroll/autoscroll

Is it possible to make the middle mouse button, when clicked on an insignificant area, would allow scrolling the same way it works on Firefox?‌
It would be nice if this was system-wide, but I'll settle for other browsers too (mainly ungoogled chromium).

Note that I could not find the following flag in chrome://flags

--enable-blink-features=MiddleClickAutoscroll

Nor could I install the frequently-recommended AutoScroll extension, and nonetheless I'd prefer if this was system-wide.

Thanks
