With the recent hack, I assume a lot of people will switch to something else, what do you think?

I still recommend using a hardware wallet over the safety benefits though.
I am still using MEW. The reason is 1) I am using a hardware wallet (no chance for my private key to be hacked). 2) I am using the legit chrome extension of MEW, which is a offline version of MEW (not affected by the recent hack).

Man, how about hacking your extension from back-end, like update on your browser, and the private key in the hands of the attacker.
I advice to download offline version from Github. It's the best way to safety.
