I will be dong the same. Will be focusing more on properties that treat me well.
As I live in Asia and most of my trips will be Asia Pacific region (with once or twice a year vacation to Europe and Middle East) I quite lucky that Bonvoy hotel has treated me well.
I did have Accor as back up. Unfortunately, while their coverage was very decent here in APAC region, their quality properties was much less than Bonvoy.
They did have Raffles which is better than whatever Bonvoy can throw, but the number are very limited.
Accor Fairmont is somewhat similar to The Ritz Carltons (no complimentary access to that just like RC)
The rest are quite weak.
As for the program itself, unfortunately Bonvoy still offer better benefit than Accor ALL.
