I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot.
Should I be using MetaMask for added security?
What does MetaMask do for me, exactly?

Also, MetaMask seems to only work for Ethereum-based coins. Is there an extension like MetaMask available for the other coins?

Hi! This is not the question should you use it or not, some people just prefer it over other services, I have never used it for myself and I am quite ok with that. I am using only myetherwallet and it works good for me.

I am also using myetherwallet because I have secured my altcoins differently. Afcorsee, if you are scared because of the possible theft the MetaMask is the best solution for you but even with it, the hacker can steal your money if he is smart and consistent enough. I would recommend it although I ain't using it. It is also highly advertised over the network and also the newbies in the crypto field had heard about it. Some don't use it and also ain't securing their wallets with the back software or hardware wallets and some of them had experienced the loss of their portfolio because of the laziness to secure it properly.
