Eh, some very initial thoughts:
I appreciate it's trying to be a somewhat integrated suite, including things such as a built-in email client, calendar, rss feeds, and even the note-taking thing in the sidebar. I even appreciate that those can be set to use other services (Google, for instance) That said, its menus (particularly for setting up email, etc.) feel a bit clunky. I'll have to dig down and point out exactly what I mean at some point. Who knows, some of those issues may be Linux specific. I signed up for a @vivaldi.net email and they forced me to not only use a alternate email, but to also enter a code from SMS (sigh). I sent a test message to my alternate email and got it there, but thus far, my replies from the alt email have yet to show in my @vivaldi inbox. I have a feeling this is someone relatively new to email hosting being overly cautious, but I don't know that for sure...
As just a browser, it's Chromium-based, so it works well. I do like the sidebar layout, especially after moving the sidebar to the right. The 'Reading List' is a cool idea and its Reader View is nice (although nearly every browser offers something like that now).
