    This works for me out of the box on KDE with Firefox, but it has to be the Wayland session. It's not implemented for X11.

    GNOME should use Wayland by default and I don't expect it to work differently, but maybe this gives you some hints...

    It works for me on i3 which is an X11 wm but I think it's only firefox.

    Chromium and its descendants also do this, but yes, that's implemented by the browser itself.

    Support for global touch gestures is dependent on the DE's feature set.

    What should i install? Or use

    Sounds like it works in firefox by default. If it working in other apps is a requirement look for a de that supports it globally. Or perhaps find an app that does it. Honestly does seem like something that could be done a driver from my very limited driver knowledge.
