Besides the actual hardware, I think the biggest problem is the software implementation of trackpads in Linux (at least in libinput/Wayland). Even running Linux on my Macbook, the trackpad experience is vastly inferior to macOS.

I don't care too much about gestures, but mostly about stable palm rejection and proper acceleration curves. The current implementations sadly provide neither.

One of my complaints with the older framework is that the trackpad scrolling is REALLY fast and AFAICT there's no way to change tbe speed on stock Fedora
