stanch3vv, sorry for your loss
From what you've said, the “hack” that happened to you was the one with the changed address?
This “hack” is a malware/virus that installs itself on your computer and when you go to copy the address and paste it into your wallet, it pastes the hacker's address and the funds go to him

If this was the hack, you could lose your funds again with Electrum or even with the hardwallet if you don't pay attention to the sending address

But in any case, you're using a hotwallet right now
I don't know if you know this, but you can use Ledger with Electrum, keeping your seed offline

Do you do a lot of transactions?
