Not all, some have switched to Latin, like Polish, Czech, Slovak, to name a few.
Switched from what, Glagolithic?
Yeah, with exception of Polish, which used Latin from the start, Czech and Slovak briefly used Glagolitic alphabet, which is much closer to Greek alphabet and basically the precursor to Cyrillic. I should've been more specific.
Some Slavic languages did switch directly from Cyrillic to Latin alphabet though. And some non-Slavic languages use Cyrillic to this day (although in process of switching to Latin).
