to be honest, I hate the Catalyst control center..

Why? Do you prefer it to be something like the Nvidia control centre?

Vivaldi’s interface is very customizable. Vivaldi combines simplicity and fashion to create a basic, highly customizable interface that provides everything a internet user could need. The browser allows users to customize the appearance of UI elements such as background color, overall theme, address bar and tab positioning, and start pages. Vivaldi features the ability to "stack" and "tile" tabs, annotate web pages, add notes to bookmarks and much more.

      Also try installing an alternative browser on ChromeOS. You have to enable dev mode and run it as a Linux app. Clunky.
