Not for me.  Under F35 Mate:

    emacs    Ctrl-A  beginning of line
    bash     Ctrl-A  beginning of line
    firefox  Ctrl-A  select all

Mac OS:

    emacs    Ctrl-A  beginning of line
    bash     Ctrl-A  beginning of line
    firefox  Ctrl-A  beginning of line

The Linux keybindings are not consistent and thus do not work fine,
for my definition of fine.

For the command (or super) key, I want the follow global bindings:

    command-A  select all
    command-C  copy
    command-P  print
    command-Q  quit
    etc.

Most of these are bound to the control key in Linux GUI applications.
This is annoying since in my brain the control key is bound to the
emacs-like functions.
