Sure you do. I'm typing this on a NixOS/GNOME box with a Magic Trackpad 2 plugged in. Wireless, multitouch gestures, everything but Force Touch works.
Someone this week suggested changes to libinput to handle the pressure handling, so Force Touch support is coming as well.
I was blown away by how good the multi-touch gestures were on GNOME when I tried Fedora Silverblue a few years back, also with a Magic Trackpad 2. Everything just worked.
There are many premium Windows laptops that have same nice smooth trackpad.
