Gnome also works like that
Yes but it has to replace your desktop with a checkerboard of launchers, which might be a thing whose effect ranges from unnecessary but harmless to annoying and confusing, especially when it lags.

Emacs uses Control and Meta. That makes Super a very useful key to map custom functions to.
Mine still works, just the bare key press that opens the start menu.
Also, the hardcoding of super-o is even more annoying.
I also noticed that in recent versions of Gnome, super-s doesn't work anymore. I have no explanation for that one.

Arch is insanely stable given it uses rolling updates. I'm not quite sure how they pull it off. I've had far worse problems with Fedora and Ubuntu, which sometimes are not even fixable because you can't easily update to the latest upstream releases (most noticeably with the kernel). On Arch, I run `pacman -Syu` every month and my system stays up to date with basically no downtime.
Does Arch have anything similar to Ubuntu/Debian's Alternatives System [1][2]? This is very useful for managing different versions of the same package/s and I tend to rely on it for a number of things.

That's true, but when you use the key a lot it often happens that you press it and then release it. It's very annoying Also, the hardcoding of super-o is even more annoying. I also noticed that in recent versions of Gnome, super-s doesn't work anymore. I have no explanation for that one.
