I did try Otter in the past when I was looking for the Opera replacement, never really liked it. It seems like it's pretty dead...last update was 2 years ago. And speed was never really my priority for the browser anyways. I'm not really looking to replace my browser, I'm happy with Vivaldi, I just like to check what else is there. I was happy to see that there is a browser based on gecko that seems to be going in the similar direction as Vivaldi.
No, only some parts are not updated some years, but the last core update is from 10 hours ago, others from a month. It's a very small community and logical that the developement isn't so active as in the big ones. The last updates also includes the possibility to use extensions, before not prossible. But yes, it's always better to use browsers in active developement and community. Which isn't the case in indie and marginal browsers and forks, mostly 1-2 devs projects.
