Vivaldi hibernates background tabs natively. Can't remember the details. There are extensions, but they just swap the site with static page.

There are some FF extensions that do just that, but some sites break as they're not expecting it.

Wouldn't those same sites break in exactly the same way if you were browsing them on a mobile browser and switched temporarily away to another app? Or suspended/resumed your desktop?
