In contrast GNOME and KDE already have some gestures implemented, mostly workspace-switching related. Additionally, GNOME extensions can alter anything from the shell, so there are already some extensions that smoothly map gesture events to custom actions. Sway might land support for binding gesture events to commands in the future.

I used gestures on Mint without any issues. You may want to install touchegg (https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg) as well as touché (https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche). It's easily configurable and works like a charm.
