So I'm trying out #VIvaldi browser (@Vivaldi) on #Ubuntu and I'll report back with what I think.
So far the initial setup and tinkering has been going well, I've got my password manager, feed reader all setup. Every optional piece of fluff that is "useful for someone but not me" has been dismissable or can be hidden from view. Great initial impression 
Might as well keep a running list of things I discover. My USB security key worked on the very first try for authenticating.
Contrast that with Firefox where sometimes I'll get a random "failed" error and then it'll work on a retry. I am not certain what the source of this issue is, and I'm not convinced it's Firefox's fault (Bitwarden REALLY wants to be the one to prompt you for your hardware key)
I abhor notification indicators, so I'm really happy that I can disable absolutely all of them so far. Although I wish there was more contextual options to simply "make this go away", usually you have to dig into settings and find each individual item.
Hmm, might have stumbled on the first missing feature? Zoom levels don't save per domain, they appear to be either per-tab or global across all tabs. I never understood why you'd want this behavior. Website text sizes tend to be pretty consistent, so having to fix an issue over-and-over again is... eh
@sethmlarson Tab switching was weird for me and maybe a hot-key or two which I quickly discovered could be changed.
I also don't love syncing + profiles, but I gave up and created six syncing accounts to work around it.
I really wish I could have one Vivaldi syncing account that was multi-Profile aware.
I know, it's probably a security/encryption reason to not do this, but it would be almost perfect UX if they did.
@sethmlarson Under Vivaldi settings there is “use tab zoom”, (webpages section I think). With that turned off per domain zoom works for me
@LucidDan Huh, I swear I tested that feature and it didn't take the first time. It seems to be working now? Strange.
