of the hundreds of flights ive taken ive never once been aware of the type of airplane i would be flying before we boarded

The original problem with the MAX-8 is that when on autopilot, the sensors would incorrectly display the AoA of the airplane and forcing it pitch down on autopilot when it it was supposed to be pitched otherwise. Engine design also contributed to the sensors being off. That's been taken care of now.
TBH I get a little freaked out at the idea of being on a MAX-8 just because I know it's a relatively newer plane and I'd rather stick with the 700/800 planes, ESPECIALLY since I'll be flying out with SWA in two days, but you really have nothing to be concerned with in regards to that.
If it's SWA, they only fly 737s. Cost saving so they can streamline maintenance. You're also flying in the US.
