I had a similar experience with Ubuntu. Once I needed to scan something and was used to Windows and that it just works or grabs the driver automatically and was unsure how to get it done on Ubuntu. But Ubuntu had already pretty good Scanner drivers packed with it and a nice GUI for it.
That is a little bit more effort on Arch, so I can understand that you choose to stick to Ubuntu :)

After seeing some configs of i3 now I think I'll use it, too.

Honestly, I couldn't recommend i3wm more. It is amazing. Just like anything on Linux, takes time to configure at first. But after 1 month you're rolling. I've been using i3wm for more than a year without switching to anything else. I can definitely say this is, so far, the biggest reason I would never come back to Windows.
