TLDR : Answer Summary
The Maesai - Tachilek border is currently open for foreigners, allowing day trips under certain conditions such as proof of vaccination or a Covid test. However, while the Mae Sot border has been open for about a month, overnight stays are not permitted for border bounces.

Mae Sai-Tachilek is open, at least for day trips. Unlike Mae Sot-Myawaddy, it appears that Tachilek immigration will allow foreigners in to roam around the city, but with proof of vaccination or a Covid test.

Yes, it's open and you qualify since you have proof of vaccination.

Foreigners can't enter Myawaddy. They can do a border bounce but must return straight away. Thai citizens can enter Myawaddy and travel around but also can't stay overnight.

There have been many rumors but best to plan that it's not open.
