Firstly, Godspeed to all those who perished in this crash.
Good grief. Jump to conclusions much? Just because it was clear and sunny does not rule out pilot error... The MAX is a great aircraft as is the entire 737 lineage. There is good reason the 737 is the most popular aircraft in commercial aviation history, it also has one of the best safety records.
Have you ever done any research on the safety history of Lion Air? If not, I recommend you do so. The entire continent of Africa has a dismal safety record with most indigenous carriers.
I would wait until the investigation sees fruition before blaming the aircraft involved.
For those worried about flying the 737 MAX, I suggest you fear not.
