Vivaldi's toolbar can be customized just like Firefox, but you additionally also get a bottom bar and a sidebar to place toolbar buttons on.

Vivaldi has a Spotlight-like search bar you can open with F2 to quickly find a page in your history or type any browser command like hiding the UI. You can also string multiple commands together and add them as a toolbar button.

You can add websites to your sidebar too to open them in a slide-out window of sorts (basically the same thing as Opera GX's sidebar).

You can tile multiple tabs to open them in a split or grid view, which I haven't found a way to replicate on Firefox so far.

And as someone else already mentioned, I personally find installing CSS and JS mods to be a lot more accessible on Vivaldi.

These features are why I prefer it over firefox, but I am curious about how it will be affectes by Manifest V3, if it losses things like an adblocker and dark reader, witch I doublt, them I will need to use waterfox, but even then, firefox, on phones and specially tablets its way worse

Vivaldi has released a blog post detailing how they'll handle Manifest v3: https://vivaldi.com/blog/manifest-v3-webrequest-and-ad-blockers/

TL;DR: They're confident their built-in adblocker will continue to work despite it.
