Nice setup. Congratulations on moving to a great distro. Unless you are bound to windows for specific reasons, usually people don't ever look back (not even Microsoft, they are slowly adopting more and more of the Linux ecosystem).
A big con to me is that Arch, at least when I was a user of it, needs good levels of attendance regarding the frequent updates. Not really a fire-and-forget-distro.
To answer your questions, I have not used i3 to be honest, but I have seen it in action, really interesting project. My favorite distro, after having tried about 10 (ubuntu, arch, debian, centos, suse, bodhi linux, pclos, mint, kali, mandriva from the top of my head), nothing compares to Debian testing. Fresh software and stable enough, power by apt and great community
Yep, you need to keep your updates up to date, but at least in my recent experience, it is not a big deal. I'm updating once a week without problems (yet).
I love Debian and Ubuntu too, and totally get the benefits of the stability.
Totally recommend you to try any window manager if you're into keyboard-driven navigation.
