Vivaldi is a productivity dream. Unfortunately it's built on chromium so it's not a complete break but it absolutely leaves every other browser in the dust in terms of how good it is. One of its best features is the ability to limit how much ram and CPU the browser as a whole uses or just certain sites. The amount of features it has is insane. Page tiling is my favourite one
+1 for Vivaldi. I keep expecting to hear that I've became out of the loop and it's turned into Brave without my knowing. It's a great concern. But so far, so excellent!
I use Zen as my primary browser. Vivaldi is my chromium backup for when something isn't playing nice with Firefox, and for installing PWAs. Vivaldi is great. I used it for years before Zen came along.
Limiting resources sounds cool. I wish I could at least determine why Firefox sometimes goes out of control eating everything. Setting a resource limit per page would be good too. Sometimes my whole computer is ground to a halt, but closing a single tab fixes it. Often not a page that is obviously doing much. Certain ecommerce sites are frequent culprits. Doing something in the background.
Firefox can tile two pages now: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/split-view/
