I used metamask with erc 20 tokens but i did not like it so much because it is not easy to use instead i use my etherwallet it is more secured.

some people must be have different opinion. But i do same with you. I never use metamask and use myetherwallet like people usually do. And i hope i already secure with that because i always check everything before open my wallet

In my opinion myethrewallet and metamask these two are most usable website for store your erc20 tokens. Apart from that you can use metamask with myetherwallet to add extra security it will also help you to trading in a decentralize platform like EtherDelta.

I agree, using Metamask adds more security on your tokens and i am really confident that my assets are safe when i use Metamask and it can be easily be connected to IDEX which is my favorite DEX platform right now.

To login to your account, using metamask is a good option. But that way you don't need to give your private key when you want to login to your MEW account. By connecting metamask you can do that. Yesterday I went to a phishing site without knowing it and metamask gave me the warning.

I only use myetherwallet, while it works well for me. I am a conservative and do not want to change anything unless there is a problem for me. Thanks for MEV.

I use MetaMask very rarely, I mostly use the local version of the MEW wallet

Metamask ,i think, is needed if you want to trade directly on decentralized exchanges such as Idex, forkdelta, Tokenjar etc. Aside that, i doubt if you need metamask for any other thing

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?

Yes, metamask is only work for ethereum network. You can store ETH or all erc20 tokens on it.
I have using metamask since it created. So far it is good using it, you dont need to input your private key to doing any transaction in your eth wallet.

MetaMask is a better way to access your ERC20 tokens as it has extra layers of security though I'm not entirely sure what they are. But either way, use MetaMask especially since it can be installed as a plugin and is easily accessible.

Metamask is really the most reliable way to manage your crypto wallets. It's rather hard to hack despite the Myetherwallet. But the most secure way is probably to obtain hardwallet like TREZOR or Ledger. That will be the best way to keep your crypto save.

Metamask is useful in case of keyloger atack. But in case of using other softwares it wouldn't help you. Be careful and everything will be good with you and your earnings. It is the only, that can really save it.

Metamask is the best browser plugin. I use it for my ethereum-based coins. with this I can avoid phishing sites that try to take over the wallet.

Myetherwallet and meta mast are the best. Alternatively you can use coinbase wallet for erc20 tokens they have recently launched. I have never tried Eidoo, their wallet also supports ERC20 tokens but reviews on them are not good. There is no need to trying other if you are on MEW/Metamask

if anyone wants to get started doing custom stuff you can use metamask and truffle suite just connect it to the aura mainnet this is what ethereum is meant for not just creating smart contracts but creating blockchains so its not hard to connect ethereum tools to the new blockchains

I never use metamask, just using mew. For security as long as you don't open phishing website, I think it always save. And never try to open 'mew link' from anyweb, I always open it from my bookmark and until now I still save.

Yes you can use MetaMask for security. Its help you to avoid fishing sites, it's easy and comfortable to use, at least for me. Besides you can connect your MEW with MetaMask, it is make myetherwallet more security.

You should use metamask to store tokens and ETH. It actually has more optimizations than MeW. You can easily manage multiple wallet codes on the same account and combine them with easy metamask.
