Print Edit does not work.
How it works in Chrome:
Reopens current page in new tab, with additional gui bar, where the user select what elements to show/hide before printing the page.Vivaldi reopens the current page in new tab, without the additional gui bar.

Google Drive in particular and Google Services in general:

Most of the extensions which use google APIs/login wont work in Vivaldi due missing [restricted] Chrome APIs.
And Google Drive is one of them. -

When I did a search on Google Drive and similar, I didn't find anything until I refreshed this page and found the what should be now sticky list that has been updated.
Elsewhere, it was noted that program that launches other browsers (Chrome, Edge, IE, Mozilla, etc.) will not work in Chrome due to "certain permissions" that are allowed in Mozilla but not Chrome. Since Vivaldi is chromium at it's core, I don't see a workaround for this, BiCBW.{"But i Could Be Wrong"}

These window resizers below don't work. Would be a great feature for Vivaldi though.
Window Resizer. This one doesn't do anything.

I found some extensions work only when Opera is installed along. For instance Roboform Password from Google Extension will not work without having Opera installed. Even though I don
t use Opera, I have to have it in order for Roboform to work with Vivaldi Roboform installer itself do not recognize Vivaldi. It sees only FF, Opera and Chrome. For Browser Cleaning I use **Click & Clean** because **History Eraser** which I like more doesn
t work with VV :S -
Fleex doesn't work. It should display button on the toolbar, but the button appears only for half a second (after installing/enabling) and then disappears. There's no way to activate the extension without the button.

Xmarks downloads only bookmarks in "Bookmarks bar" folder, but not these in "Other bookmarks" folder.

Ghostery
It detects stuff but does not block.

Bamboo Spear
The opened menu-icon options popup is flickering terribly … the plugin works so far, but it's a threat to the eyes.

Screencastify
Works if you use the "Desktop" option for recording. Trying to record just a tab usually results in an error, "Failed to start recording".
Still useful! Just less convenient without tab specific recording.

The extension "Ember Inspector" was working fine (on the snapshot version) until some time ago (about two or three updates), where it stopped being able to recognise Ember apps as such*. It is still working fine on the latest Chromium.
Actually, it shows the icon indicating the Ember app, but when you tried to load the inspector, it can't find it.

Super Auto Refresh
If i wasn't lazy, i'd edit my personal log notes into a brief summary here... but i am lazy, so copy & paste it is instead:
"26/11/16: A few days ago i made a major discovery, i think, in the longterm hassle with Vivaldi getting laggier & laggier when successive updates are overlaid to the same profile, historically forcing me eventually to have to build a new clean profile [historically i must have had to do this maybe a dozen times, & it's a PAIN].
One major form this lagginess has taken is that scrolling pages, either manually with the scroll bars, or semi-automatically with the middle [wheel] button care of Extension "Autoscroll", suffers increasing frequency & duration of "pauses" before scrolling resumes. It's infuriating, & really slows browsing down.
Another major symptom is that when watching video streaming, every couple of minutes the images freeze for a few seconds, whilst the sound continues. It's annoying in general, but particularly decimates sub-titled movies. These become nonviable, as i miss key translations whilst the sound moves on, then when the pause stops the video jumps ahead to catch up again. It's hopeless.
My discovery was to speculate that possibly the SAR extension's periodic refreshes of its designated pages [which i'd set to be every couple of minutes for some of my permanent tabs], might be stealing sufficient V resources to cause these scrolling & video pauses. I tested this idea by disabling [not yet deleting] this extension. Since then, the pauses seem to have really dramatically reduced, both in frequency & duration. It's not perfect, but thus far it seems to be a BIG IMPROVEMENT.
11/1/17: UPDATE: Since my original note, for other reasons i have created a fresh profile at least once [with SAR not installed at all now]. For many many weeks now, V SS & Stable have been wonderful; the lagginess & pausing [scrolling & streaming] have GONE. Thus, SAR, hitherto a mainstay extension for all my chromium-based browsers, is clearly incompatible with Vivaldi... sadly it took me at least a year to realise this!!"
