I heard that the wallet MEW may not be used anymore, this information is true. So if the wallet MEW for some reason can not be used then can we use any other wallet?
As of now I can still use and gain access on my account using MyEtherwallet with no problem. I have never heard that it goes down. Maybe some small maintenance but now, it is operational again and is safe.
I have made my choice some time before. I don't want to meet with any problems on MyEtherWallet. I used to work with Metamask and there is no any complaints to this service. In addition I use hardware wallets.
