its probably the same thing but explained differently . however bitbox article dig more into details . as for the other open source wallet suggested here  i found electrum was hacked in 2019  ???https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/5084

It was a phishing attack actually, yes and it got patched and fixed already.

Like I said, unlike blockchain.com, Electrum cannot be targeted the same way, because no private keys are hosted in their servers.

so i guess no option is truly safe but i think exodus would be slightly better than blockchain.com

Assuming it's truly noncustodial as they claim, then yes.

hardware wallets like trezor are not convenient for multi day to day transactions as you need to be more careful and caring with the device and execution.

You can always buy a hardware wallet, keep most of your funds in it and the rest could go into a hot wallet in your PC/mobile.
