I've never tried Vivaldi. Might give it a go at some point. Although I've been a hardcore Chrome user as I have used it since version 3 or something.
 
Does anyone know how to make Vivaldi run in the background like Chrome can?

I found the Chrome options to enable it, but it refuses to run in the background. That might be a deal breaker for me. Otherwise, it's really nice.,
