Two similar alternatives you could look at are PyVista which is based on the same framework as Mayavi and VisPy. Mayavi is strongly dependent on the whole Enthought suite which can be a disadvantage if you don’t really use its abilities.

2. I recommend Datashader (https://datashader.org/) (HoloViz is super cool) and Vispy (https://vispy.org/). I found Vispy's documentation a bit lacking some time ago, but they probably have improved it since then, and it's very capable. Lastly, check Taichi (https://taichi.graphics/), might not be a conventional data representation library (or rather, not only), but it's amazing and worth a look.
To add some more depth to the Seaborn comparison, and not being an expert Seaborn user, I'd say:
1. MPL Plotter is lighter (but also with less wide-ranging plot options)
