I've noticed that three finger drag does not work in the latest Safari.
I used to be able to select text or pan in Google Maps easily. Now I have to push finger.
Outside Safari it works as usual.
I use BetterTouchTool if that makes any difference. Old school glass trackpad with click.

Make sure to update to the latest version of BetterTouchTool. Everything >= 1.86 should be compatible with Sierra.
