Replacement for Freedom MC

I recently got a message when I logged in online that my Chase Freedom Mastercard is now a Visa - with a new card number. Never received any notices about it before that (I know...its been all over this forum). Just changed overnight, and don't have a new card yet, but it appears that they are going all Visa for CC which is quite unfortunate.

This is my only MasterCard - all my other CCs are Visa's. I wanted to keep the MC for this reason, but apparently, there is not a way. Can anyone recommend a similar replacement for me? I have a good relationship with Chase (bank, investment, as well as other CCs).

Just a little more: I'd like a similar kind of card. I don't really churn (or have that much of a desire in particular to do it), but would of course would welcome something with a good sign up bonus and a want something with a good reward structure. Currently, aside from the Freedom, I have a United Select as well as Chase CSP that I use primarily, using each where I think I get the best value. I don't have a particular bank or even CC preference - so I'm up for a MasterCard, Discover or AMex - whichever makes the most sense, just something so that not everything in my wallet is Visa.

Appreciate any advice.
