I wouldn’t use this because it is based on chromium but it is cool how they manage tabs
Yes, but there are Chromiums and Chromiums. Chromium is FOSS and free customizable, gutting all the Google APIs which it has, what Vivaldi does. In Vivaldi are less Google influences as in the current Firefox.

I never understood the need for a browser wallpaper. Same as screensavers, I look at them for max 10 seconds a day.
Screensavers were initially made to prevent screen burn in at the time.
I knew that, but thanks I guess ;)
I don’t use wallpaper in mobile, but a dark theme, because it’s better for my eyes. It’s correct that wallpapers and screensavers are innecesary, but some people like to customize it, same as pictures or posters in your home also not really needed. On desktop almost any browser admits custom wallpapers. It’s respectable if you don’t like it, but anyone is free to use this feature or not, same as any other feature in Vivaldi. Use these which you want or need and hide the rest, that is the main feature.
Nah, don’t get me wrong. I respect other users choices. I just didn’t understand the need for something you (very) rarely see (unlike pictures on the wall).
TooTo each their own.That is the point, to each their own is the Vivaldi philosophy, it’s build arround user requests. As say, users request a feature and depending of it’s upvotes it enter in the dev timeline (It may take some time until it is implemented, given that Vivaldi has a very capable but small team (~50 devs for 6 OS), it’s only a small employee owned coop in Norway).
