I think I am starting to get worried about the future of Apple.

2016 was a bad year. New iPhone has been the worst selling one in relative numbers since the iPhone. New MacBooks has several issues and controversial choices, while not bringing anything substantial to the table. New Watch changes are so small, nobody noticed an update.

Just look at Android phones and tablets and non-Apple notebooks: Apple will be fine. (I'm an Android user).

I ditched my rMBP in favor of a Dell M5510 Developer Edition because I was sick of my MBP pretty consistently freezing especially waking from sleep, or the sound drivers crashing, or my time machine backups becoming corrupted every other week. The build quality is 90% of the way there, as are a lot of smartphones like the One Plus 3 for half the price of an iPhone.

What do you use for local backup?

I just have an rsync cronjob that makes an incremental backup to a network drive on my home LAN. There are some GUIs for rsync like BackInTime for those who are less inclined to deal with the command line.
