I got Vivaldi to run under Arch, and probably the same trick would work for Chrome (which is under Vivaldi).
1. In the AUR there is a 64-bit Arm Vivaldi snapshot Download it
2. Unpack the archive and do an install like you would anything else from AUR
3. There were 2 or 3 things I had to add using pacman (in fact, I had to add fakeroot to get the packaging to work). Everything was there, just pacman -S xxxx
4. Do the install.
Now you will have a problem. Vivaldi is there but won't run. Here's why. GDK_BACKEND is set to wayland. It needs to be set to x11. You can edit the launcher or the Vivaldi script or from CLI:
GDK_BACKEND=x11 vivaldi-stable
Seems to mostly work. The interface is a bit clipped. Setting it to native window (restart required) helped I think. Moving the address bar to the bottom helped a lot.
Woo hoo!
Update: ALT+F10 maximizes the window which cleans up most of the issues.
