I'm still trying to get myself over to linux, and I'm having a hard time finding a replacement for BetterTouchTool. Essentially, the app lets you customize multitouch trackpad gestures per-app and system wide with single to 5 finger support.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

On Wayland your DE might get in the way of touchegg with its gestures. I wouldn't reccomend it on Plasma Wayland. (Last time I checked was like two years ago)
With Wayland finally exploding on the scene these past two years, I want to imagine the devs having worked on that. Many distros are already Wayland default and another 5 years and X will mostly be unsupported by most distros
