Apple's touchpad works natively out of the box on Linux and has for many years. I use a magic touchpad 2 on Archlinux for my daily driver.

I know this is possible, but to me the most ergonomic setup is the way it is on MacBooks. Having it on the side does not work for me.

I put my Apple trackpad in front of my keyboard.

I think, it would be best some keyboard manufacturer to invent a keyboard, which fits AROUND Apple trackpad, i.e. have keys on arcs, not on straight lines. This would be the best from ergonomics point of view, I think.

Get a split keyboard (ergodox/kinesis/etc) and put the trackpad in the middle?
