> What is the appeal of Vivaldi browser

It's browser made for power users. Bunch of features built in with a lot of flexibility.

Few of my favorites: Vertical Tabs, "Stack tabs by host" (this extension practically), Hibernating background tabs.

Two of your 3 favorites are not unique to Vivaldi, is there any other feature worth the switch besides "Stack tabs by host"?
Even stack tabs by host is not unique with this extension is it? :)

It's made for power users as I said, for example you can change the right click menu on the tab bar and have only things you care about in there instead of 1000 options. I bet there are other "unique" features, but that's not the point.

If you are happy with chrome keep using it.

I don't use chrome (and I don't think anyone mentioned chrome in this comment thread about Vivaldi), I was just curious if Vivaldi was worth a try.
Sure, why not if you're curious and have a few mins to spare. It's free
