Vivaldi is chromium based rather than webkit.

Google is more than a browser manufacturer. Their business model is mostly ads. Things like Chrome feed back into that (collecting data on people and using it to personalize other experiences... like ads). How is Vivaldi's business model similar?

Sorry, I'm so oldschool that for me the two are still basically the same -- after all, blink was a webkit fork, which was a khtml fork.

The chances that we can digest food in the same way as rodents do, are much lower than the chances that blink will render a webpage like webkit does :)
