I'm straddling vivaldi and firefox 84 on two screens. First and foremost Vivaldi updates via it's own exe so you can rename that and all updates are disabled with no nag. I put control above privacy, what matters privacy if your flow can be taken from under you on next forced update.
Vivaldi is still behind FF84 in three notable areas: video/PiP (why they dim the video when the mouse is over the pip window I have no idea), occasional tab thread instability (requiring esc press to unlock), scrolling physics.
But vivaldi also makes up for it with other features. Mouse gestures are a godsend and improve browsing immeasurably (e.g. I made an up-left-right gesture to bring down bookmarks bar). I briefly hooked into a fake email server so I could enable the built-in RSS features and that's going places. The stacked tabs are solid, they seem to be taking great care in getting them right.
